This paper analyzes the scope for the awarding of contracts to multiple bidders in regional railway networks. We estimate economies of scale at a disaggregated level, the only one now relevant for analyzing European railway markets. Our results show that economies of scale in regional networks are not significant. The monopoly of a single railway operator in an entire regional network is thus not justified, given the expected benefits of competition. We therefore propose the break-up of the regional networks, with due regard for network effects (interconnection costs), the contestability of individual contracts (information rents) and procurement procedures (transaction costs).Ce papier analyse les possibilités d’allotissement des réseaux r...
