All this sounds a bit rich coming from Alstom, which almost went bust in 2003 and was bailed out by the French government.
The disastrous purchase of ABB's turbine business left it with dud products that undermined customers' confidence;
as orders dried up, Alstom started running out of cash. （中略）
Just as Boeing and Airbus are at loggerheads in the middle of a boom for aircraft orders,
the trainmakers are coming to blows at a time when railway operators are buying many more trains than usual.
The worldwide open market for trains is estimated to be worth euro 24 billion, according to a study by Roland Berger, a German consultancy.
The total railway market is about euro 70 billion, if you include infrastructure, signalling and control, and maintenance services.
Bombardier, Alstom and Siemens account for 55% of the train-hardware business between them,
and all three are pulling further ahead of smaller producers such as Ansaldo of Italy and Spain's CAF.
There are unconfirmed rumours that the makeover Klaus Kleinfeld is undertaking at Siemens might lead it to quit the train business
because margins are being squeezed, possibly by selling its train division to Kawasaki or Hitachi of Japan.
Much of the growth is in Europe, where congested roads are prompting town planners to turn to light rail and trams to carry commuters.
After years of concentrating on high-speed trains, the emphasis now,
especially for SNCF, is on renewing antique commuter and regional rolling-stock.（以下略）
