Consultation participation and their own register declarations, side by side. Counts, not judgments — participation is not influence.
Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 583 consultation files tracked so far (42,224 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.
Register facts self-declared (snapshot 2 Sept 2026); cost bands are floors. Shared files are shared attention, not evidence of coordination.
What each said, in their own words
Their opening passages on the files they share, verbatim and in filing order. We do not summarize, compare, or characterize positions — read them at source.
Great economic importance of rail freight transport It is the European goal of rail freight transport to increase the share of rail from today's EU average of 18% to 30% by 2030 in order to neutralize the negative environmental and social impact of the projected strong growth of land-based transport.
With the European Green Deal and the Strategy on Sustainable and Smart Mobility, the European Commission explicitly supports greening freight transport – for instance by increasing rail freight traffic by 50% by 2030 and doubling it by 2050. Keeping in mind, that rail freight could save 19 million t CO2 until 2030 the political framework is more important than ever.
