Rail transport cannot be considered without non-public railway tracks and their operations, if we based on the technological point of view. The cargo railway service’s market, in the same time, amount a unified whole with the enterprises of industrial transport. The large portion of cargo’s flow usually is forming on the non-public railway tracks and is processed on the same tracks after arriving. Regulation of haulage services of rail transport enterprises – first of all, tariff (price) regulation – in it’s development have congealed on the level of the middle 1990s. The legislative power has no interest in it, and executive and judicial branches of power both have conservative observations about this question, which making situation worsen. Some of contemporary problems are represented in this article.
