Abstract

The purpose of this article is to present the computation results of the synthetic indicator of the economic situation of the rail transport sector in Poland, referred to as ‘the Rail Barometer’. It was developed in 2017 based on the methodology presented by Zajfert, Antonowicz, Majewski, Wołek, members of the Scientific Council of the ‘Pro Kolej’ Foundation, and published in the article: ‘Assumptions for the synthetic indicator of the economic situation of the rail transport sector in Poland’ (Antonowicz et al. in Ekon. Transp. Logist. 74:467–481, 2017 [1]). The article describes the effects of work on implementation, provision of statistical content and calibrating the tool for monitoring changes in the rail sector, including the database structure and volatility of the value expressed as a number of points of ‘the Rail Barometer’ computed on its bases.
