We already had this years ago with SCIC-NRT but France, Italy,Spain and Sweden started with the Global Price Bullshit which destroyed it. Nowadays with the private operators the rail sector is getting even more fragmented. Also the 4th rail package of the EU which bans state rail operators from getting any direct subsidies starting 2031 (everything has to be put up for tender) will make this situation even worse I fear. I really like the EU, but that rule is really shitty. The Status Quo where every member state decides if they want to have a market in their rail sector or a national railway was better IMHO
