− (FR) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, after the adoption of the first two railway packages in 2001 and 2004 and before the adoption of the third railway package on 13 December 2006, the Commission proposed a new set of legislative measures on cross-acceptance of rolling stock, particularly locomotives.

The Commission shall report by 31 December 2004 on the need to establish other limit values or test procedures for locomotive engines with a volume of more than 5 litres per cylinder.

It is the inability of a train to cross borders without changing locomotives, changing drivers or even changing bogeys that is the problem for our railways.

Hitherto, to use a railway image, some coaches were always left behind as the train steamed towards progress.
