最近重新國有化的英國鐵路網(wǎng)可能會被迫出售其交通部門的電信網(wǎng)絡(luò)工作。

　　和Vodafone等私營提供商可以提供無線網(wǎng)絡(luò)服務(wù)并向火車司機傳輸信號信息。通過一個長期的交通運輸合同來外包或出售經(jīng)營權(quán)是其交通部門計劃的一部分。

　　鐵路網(wǎng)的消息人士告訴《獨立報》說，“仍然可以保留這部分工作，但公司內(nèi)部的一個觀點是，鐵路網(wǎng)太大，他們不認為這是一個核心業(yè)務(wù)。”

　　預(yù)計在今年夏天將作出最終決定。

　　Network Rail may Sell Telecommunications Rights

　　Recently renationalised Network Rail may be forced to sell its telecoms work to the Department for Transport (DfT).

　　Private sector providers such as O2, BT and Vodafone could begin providing Wi-Fi services and transmitting signalling information to train drivers, as part of plans brought about by the DfT to either outsource the rights through a long-term travel and transport contract or sell them off entirely.

　　A Network Rail source told the Independent that “the work could still be kept in-house, but one of the views at DfT is that Network Rail is too big – and they don’t think this is a core business.”

　　A final decision is expected this summer.
