Abstract

The current trend of railroad transport defines a future scenario in which cost minimization strategies will be replaced by quality maximization strategies due to the continuous development of the society and the change occurring in consumers’ preferences that are in a constant desire of more and better. The renewal of the European railroads is one of the main objectives of all representative institutions. This is the reason for which the current paper wishes to analyze the present state of the Romanian Railroad System from a passengers’ perspective and to assess the trend of the following years.
