9.2 Rail transport The figure shows the evolution of freight transport in Europe by all modes.
Figure 26:Evolution of freight transport by mode (EU27, billion tkm)
Source: Eurostat
The evidence is that rail freight transport has mostly been flat. In 1995, 386 billion tkm were carried by rail, and in 2005 the traffic was equal to 414 billion tkm. This represents an overall +7% growth in a ten year span; in the same period overall freight transport grew by +29%, road freight transport grew by +39%, sea transport by +27%, and IWW (Inland Waterway) transport by 14%.

11 Outcome of the Questionnaires to the Air Cargo Stakeholders
The CargoMap consortium sent out a large number of questionnaires to stakeholders in the hope to get a better feeling for future expectations of these stakeholders and to investigate their opinions regarding the possible future concepts emerged from the SWOT analysis.
The response to the questionnaire was disappointing: in total, only 13 answers were received. Answers were received from:
Airlines: 3 ( note these were networked carriers, no dedicated cargo operators/ integrators)
Outsized cargo airline: 1
Forwarders/ shippers: 7
Media: 1
University: 1
However, the coverage of the answers was quite good so it is worthwhile to look into the results. D2.1 and its annex illustrate the questionnaire and the detailed results. Here the summary of conclusions is reported, divided by type of market (long – medium – short – very short haul) and with a section dedicated to questions on R&D.
11.1 Long haul (> 6000 km) All agree that the focus of air cargo will be high value cargo, where value/density and time to market is relevant. Also air transport can be used for high value or time critical oversized cargo. It is interesting to note that airlines feel that the HUB-airports are strategically best located to serve the customers whilst forwarders and shippers do not fully agree. They would like to see some airports nearer to the final customer.
Airlines do not see a need for novel aircraft that fly slower at lower cost. For them speed thus time is the most important parameter. Slower aircraft may also require more crew. The operators (forwarders) however see the potential of new aircraft that fly slower at lower cost. One of the arguments used was that intercontinental shipments take 5 days for door to door delivery, and the flying does not represent a large portion of that total time from door to door. They see lower cost as a main advantage. They see a market for these aircraft over long distances, for example to China, Africa and South America.
One of the main ideas for CargoMap is to use different types of containers (that would require different aircraft configurations). Basically both airlines and forwarders and shippers agree that a new type of container would be a good solution. However one forwarder noted that the flexibility should not be lost: freight cannot be held up because the container needs to be filled up first. So the volume of shipments should be large enough. However all see the benefit of more containerized packaging as it would reduce the need for repackaging.
On the question how future distribution should be organized, the airlines and some forwarders see the HUB airports as the best solution. However many forwarders and shippers would like to use more smaller airports for long haul air cargo, situated nearer to the final customer. One airline and the outsized cargo transporter saw benefits in the amphibious plane option.
