Green Cargo and CIE hadn't reported yet. I left off the Baltic Republics, Bulgaria, Romania, and the Balkans other than Slovenia.
SNCF Fret and PKP Cargo have slowed their slide, while Trenitalia has managed to reverse theirs. SBB Cargo continues to march up the list moving up four places. FOC is the combined UK Companies (EW&S, Freightliner, GB Railfreight, and DRS).
