Subramani Rail Network

Postby Turino » Fri May 25, 2012 3:20 pm

The Subramani Railway Network began operations on 1st June 2012. A combined state and private company investment, led by Turino Trains International, led to the formation and international integration
of the railways in the blessed country of Subramani


(*Front created by TTI management)

The Network is divided into 6 Lines, some of which are State Owned and Privatised.
These are:
International Subramani Connection Line (Orange)
Defence Transportation Rail (Purple)
Southern Travel Route (Grey)
Turino RailFreight-Agriculture 0184 (Blue)
East Reserve Line (Green)
West-Land Subramani Line (Yellow)


The Main stations on the Network include Central Station, which provides connections of all Civilian Networks within the country and Hill Station, which is the main access-point for tourists.

Financial and Ownership Information & Contracts:


To: Transport Department of Subramani

Below is a detailed report of what Turino Trains International feels can be managed regarding your requests:
Note Each Heading has a detailed report, and there is a summary of financial situations and balances at the bottom.

Northern Province

Hill Tourist Privatisation Scheme
[spoiler]The proposed privatisation scheme here seems financially viable as it is most likely the quickest connection and access point for TTI's existing lines. Therefore this rail connection (built along 118km from Turino International's Rail Station/VA international Airport, costing 34.7m for us to construct a double rail-line , can be constructed. (Time to construct probably around 10 days). TTI will then provide its own service here, most likely bringing 174,132 tourists per week to the station.

Profits on this line for the Subramani Government (by allowing us to build the network in your nation) would generate weekly profits of NS$2,860,800
One question: Hill Station will that also be privatised or does your Government wish to remain in control of that too?



Millitary Transportation Network

For this , TTI Construction's team needs to be aware of how many bases need to be supplied and how far away ( ie total distance of network). However just to aid our model, we have assumed this only needs to be a basic line , (75km in length) that can provide basic transportation. The cost to build a basic network, (One line only with line changers) is reduced to less than 120,000 per km to a total of 11.1 million NS dollars.

Normally, TTI operates civilian networks so could charge users on the train , but as this is to transport State personal , TTI have calculated to maintain the network , ie trains, fuel , salaries of drivers etc this comes to NS$50,000 a week. Therefore TTI have a solution, we will PAY for the costs of building the network, and you simply pay us NS$300,500 a week to run the service,-Note the Network will be in legally owned by the Subramani Government, but only TTI will operate it as long as it is in service
.


Southern Province

The Environmental factors involved pushes the track costings to nearly NS$300K per Km.For a proposed 80km transportation network, TTI will happily build a Privatised Transportation Network, that we believe could accommodate nearly 2800 passengers an hour *during rush hour services*(service every 15 minutes) . The cost of tickets to travel for normal passengers will vary, probably around NS$4.50 one way from one end to the other during rush hour.
Normally the Subramani Government could achieve profits on this, but TTI is willing to offer a NS$2.00 Discount Service to Students instead (Ie your profits are used to subsidise students instead).

Note : For Construction to begin TTI needs a list of Stations and educational establishments where it would need to stop as well.


Agricultural Network: Similar to the Military Scheme, but this will be considerably cheaper as TTI has experience in goods transfer (currently operates Rail Transport for an International Tea Company-New Waterford) and flat lands of agricultural pastures reducing building costs. For a network, this will be around 12.5m to build and for your Government to directly buy, or TTI will build this network and maintain services there, in return we simply ask for 12% of Agricultural Export profits from that region.




Eastern Province

A State Network here, would probably cost you NS58.2m (one of the most expensive builds) especially with concerns to sustainability. TTI does not currently possess any Eco-Friendly Rail Vehicles, but can purchase a new fleet if required (would probably cost nearly 14.2m for TTI. Also restrictions on times can be arranged but do mean losses on Profits margins. Here The only option is for the Government to build the network,and we will pay NS$2,512,600 a week to use it.

Please Specify the Stations where the Service is required to stop.



Western Province

This sounds perfectly ideal. TTI will cover the costs as usual , and having recently purchased new trains at 6m each from Orbis Engineering, one of the most prestigious Train Storefronts, it will easily accomodate this service. Calculations suggest your profits here will be over NS$2,269,325 per week.


Central Province

Being one of the poorest regions, and being such an ideal location, TTI will operate a basic service here, slightly cheaper then before, but crucially will set up its Rail Yards and Storage houses here. Moreover, TTI is wiling to help boost employment further by using 80% local workforce to stimulate the economy there.




Summary: Option Chosen

Option 3:
Subramani Government Pays to build: NS$142,900,000
Subramani Government Pays to maintain: NS$528,000
Subramani Government Receives: 7,478,700 per week

Total Profit: NS$6,950,700 per week
(Costs repaid in 5 months)




Hoping a deal can be arranged,
