Eerder deze maand publiceerde de NGO Transport & Environment (T&E), die ijvert voor milieuvriendelijker vervoer, een studie over de kwaliteit van de Europese spoorwegmaatschappijen.
- De treintickets zijn niet goedkoop (6,4/10), maar je kunt vaak profiteren van interessante kortingen (10/10), meestal als je ruim vooraf boekt.
- Trenitalia (8,9/10) en het Franse SNCF (10/10) vallen op door hun reiservaring.
- Voor wat boekingservaring betreft staat Trenitalia op de vijfde plaats.
- Het Zwitserse SBB en de Nederlandse NS zijn de meest punctuele operators in Europa, maar ook hier staat Trenitalia vijfde.
