The total subsidy to DfT franchised train operators was 6.8 pence per passenger mile in 2013 to 2014, down from 7.3 pence per passenger mile in 2012 to 2013.
For this indicator, total subsidy includes:
- (a) subsidy paid directly to train operators by government
- figures published by the Office of Rail Regulation based on passenger kilometres, converted to miles
- (b) an allocation of the Network Grant (that is, payments made directly to Network Rail)
- this is calculated by taking the total network grant, apportioned according to each franchise’s share of fixed track access charges
