Summary/Abstract: The proposal introduces the institutional separation of the infrastructure manager from transport operations. The authors contest the universal model of railways and suggest an increased level of funding for railway infrastructure. They question the compliance of the proposed directive with the principle of subsidiarity and opt for the achievement of its objectives by other actions taken at national level. The authors agree that the adoption of the proposal would lead to a far‑reaching interference in the organization and management of the railways, and that its results may differ from country to country. They are critical to the proposed directive and conclude that its adoption may require amendments to several pieces of legislation, the standards it introduces are premature, and can have unpredictable legal and socio‑economic consequences.
