| 摘要： | Lacking the integration of new technology with modern passenger rail management, late 20th century railroads have paradoxically exhibited parallel success stories and failures in passenger operations. On the one hand, Japan's Shinkansen, America's Metroliner, and France's TGV have demonstrated that trains could attract new riders and succeed economically in direct commercial competition with automobile and air travel. On the other hand, passenger rail operators around the world experienced operating losses, declining market share, and poor productivity as increasing levels of government subsidy cushioned the gap between expenses and revenues. The accelerating pace of change, coupled with a greater fusion of technical and organizational innovations, makes predicting the place of passenger trains in the new millennium more exciting but also more difficult. |
