SBB Facts and
Figures.
Cover: Tim Rasper, Passenger Services supervisor, at work in the underground Löwenstrasse section of Zurich main station.
SBB
keeps Switzerland moving – but how does it actually do that?
These company statistics answer that question with a wide range
of facts and figures. In addition to charts and tables, you will
also find the latest rolling stock diagrams and the
SBB
network map.
But amongst this wealth of information, there is one thing that
should not be forgotten: Who is behind all these facts and figures?
It is our customers and employees. Without them, the wheels
of
SBB
would literally grind to a halt. And thanks to them,
SBB
is
more than just a company: it is part of Switzerland.

GlossaryTerms used.
Block train Railfreight service involving the
haulage of an entire train composed of an indi-vidual customer’s wagons, all of which have the same point of origin and the same destination.
Infrastructure manager Company responsible
for the operation, maintenance, renewal and enhancement of the rail infrastructure.
Integrated rail Railway undertaking that is also
a railway infrastructure operator.
Intermodal freight Haulage of freight by means
of different transport modes without changing the cargo units used. A distinction is made between unaccompanied intermodal (or “combined”) freight and piggyback freight (also called “Rollende Landstrasse” in German-speaking countries).
Piggyback freight Synonym for “accompanied”
combined (intermodal) freight: transportation of a truck, together with its driver, on a railfreight wagon.
Railway undertaking Rail company providing
passenger or freight transport services.
Routes managed The lines managed by an
infrastructure management company. They may not necessarily be owned by the operator but may be leased by the operator or managed on behalf of third parties.
Tonnage Volume of freight traffic. Total gross
tonnes: overall weight of a freight train includ-ing locomotive(s). Gross tonnes: hauled tonnage, i. e. overall weight of the train without locomo-tive(s). Net tonnes: actual payload of a freight train. Net-net tonnes: weight of the transported goods in unaccompanied intermodal transport, excluding the tare weight of the containers, swap bodies or semi-trailers.
Traffic performance The transport service
obtained by the customer, i.e. the volume trans-ported multiplied by the distance travelled. This is measured in passenger-kilometres in the passenger segment, in tonne-kilometres in the freight segment, and in train-path kilometres in the infrastructure business.
Traffic volume In the passenger segment, traffic
volume relates to the number of passenger jour-neys while in the freight segment it corresponds to the tonnage transported (net tonne) and in the infrastructure segment it relates to the number of trains travelling on the network.
Train path Entitlement to run a train on the
infrastructure to a defined place and at a defined time; “timetable slot”.
Transport services provided Services provided
by the infrastructure management company or train operator in the fields of infrastructure or transport respectively.
Wagonload freight Freight service in which
individual wagons are joined together by the railway company to form trains which are then hauled over longer distances. The various wagons may have different points of origin and different destinations.

Units used.
Owing to rounding, the sums of the figures in the tables may differ from the totals stated. [ ] Data in square brackets is not directly com-parable with the current data due to restatement. … Data on this parameter is not available. – Figure is exactly zero, or the parameter does not exist.
Bkm Bus-kilometre. Unit of measurement expressing the performance of a bus from the transport operator’s point of view. One bus- kilometre corresponds to a journey made by a bus over a distance of one kilometre. CHF Swiss franc.
Diesel equivalent Energy content of one litre of
diesel (see “petrol equivalent”).
Employee Person employed by a company,
regardless of whether full-time or part-time. FTE Full-time equivalent. Measure of a com-pany’s human resources. One FTE corresponds to one person in full-time employment for one year.
GWh Gigawatt-hour. ha Hectare. l Litre.
Net tonne Unit of measurement for the
pay-load of a freight train, i.e. the weight of the cargo accepted from the customer.
Net tonne-km Unit of measurement for volume
of freight ser vices required; only takes ac-count of the weight of the cargo. One net tonne- kilometre corresponds to the shipment of one net tonne of freight over a distance of one kilometre.
Petrol equivalent Energy content of one litre of
petrol: this unit of measurement enables the energy consumption of various types of traction to be compared with each other.
PJ Passenger-journey. Standard measure for the volume of passenger services required. One passenger-journey denotes the journey made by a person from his or her starting point on the transport company’s network to his or her destination in that network. The number of passenger-journeys stated in the company statistics here are consolidated at group level. Pkm Passenger-kilometre. Standard measure for the performance of passenger services. One passenger-kilometre denotes the distance of one kilometre travelled by one person.
Seat-km offered Unit expressing the number
of seats offered by a transport company. One seat-kilometre offered denotes that one pas-senger seat in one train or bus is available for the carriage of a person over one kilometre.
Train-km Unit of measurement expressing the
performance of a train from the railway com-pany’s point of view. One train-kilometre corre-sponds to a journey made by a train over a distance of one kilometre.
Train-path km Standard measure for the service
required by the railway companies in terms of network access, from the viewpoint of the railway infrastructure manager. A train-path kilometre corresponds to a train’s use of the rail infrastructure over a distance of one kilometre.
Vehicle km Vehicle kilometres. Unit of
measure-ment for the operating performance of a train or bus from the transport operator’s point of view. A vehicle kilometre corresponds to a distance of one kilometre travelled by a train or bus.
