October 2010 opening of all markets, general access The free market argument Beneficial for passengers Triggers development and increases efficiency Also domestic markets should be opened Abolish monopolies, avoid concessions/restrictions

13 Challenges Facing full-fledged deregulation Customer satisfaction Improved quality of service Employee contribution Increased participation Sustained profitability Improved productivity Expansion New markets BLS-visit

14 SJs journey of change From TRAIN generics From TRAIN is good for From TRAIN & sustainability From operating TRAINs From information to SJ specifics to SJ is good for to SJ & sustainability to serving customers to dialogue

15 The rolling stock ahead 20 SJ SJ Double deckers 100 RC-locomotives 350 wagons

16 SJ 3000 is our latest new train 25-40% is recycled vehicle can be recycled to 98% Sorting stations in each car Uses 10% less energy compared to SJ 2000 Regenerative brakes enables - 12% energy recovery

17 SJ 2000 Upgrade Technology An SJ analysis suggested the possibility, from a technical perspective, of a life extension of X2000 for the coming years

18 SJ2000 Actions Two projects; Upgrade och Interior Refurbishment Upgrade Interior Refurbishment

19 Very High Speed next step? 20

20 Objective for SJ High Speed Trains 250 Km/h on existing tracks Change the way to travel! A new concept that drives travel Compare the introduction of the X2000 Starting requirements Vehicles on the existing infrastructure Standard rolling stock, 250 km / h and tilting Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Germany Profitable business case B. Westerberg, 21

21 4:40 5:40 Umeå T11 X55 6:30 Best travel by direct train today and with the X250 2:45 3:00 Sundsvall T11 X2 3:10 0:00 Stockholm Stockholm-Göteborg T11 X2: 2:45 2:30 2:45 Journey with X2/X55 Rounded to the even number of minutes Including normal additions 4:40 5:40 Göteborg-Malmö T11 X31: 2:30 Stockholm-Malmö T11 X2: 4:04 2:00 2:10 3:35 4:00 22 Assumption: the infrastructure is adapted to 250 mph in the relevant section of the lines

22 Need for an upgraded infrastructure Technical issues for 250 km / h Rail track technology Cant deficiency Rails, switches, track forces Buoyancy in the embankment Track Geometry, line optimization Track Location Line Conversion Bridges Catenary Level crossings Signalling system Bypass Track Traffic Issues Tilting Station Passages Noise Passing clearance between trains Winter Properties Capacity 23

32 Reach from Köpenhamn

33 Conclusions Travel times Malmö-Hamburg on <3h is competitive! Göteborg-Malmö-Hamburg on 5h is o.k. Stockholm- Hamburg on 8h is too long Currently, the travel market Malmö-Hamburg is less than Stockholm-Göteborg A strong connection can generate substantial increase in travel, compare Öresundsbroeffekten

34 Two arenas for international competition relevant for SJ Secure Scandinavian leadership Establish European position Focus on Swedish domestic market and key Scandinavian routes International expansion, to/from and outside Sweden/Scandinavia SJ can play in both arenas alone or together with one or multiple partners
