The decrease in railway transport volumes in recent years reveals the necessity of examining the railway transport performance. In this research, it is aimed to determine the railway transport performance of European countries in 2020. Sixteen railway performance criteria have been determined. Three of these criteria are cost-based and thirteen criteria are benefit-based. The criterion weights have been calculated by the Criteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation (CRITIC) technique. The railway transport performance of twenty-three European countries is presented using the Range of Value (ROV) technique. The data set has been obtained from the Eurostat database. According to the research findings, the three criteria with the highest weight are determined as rail accidents victims, rail accidents, accidents involving transport of dangerous goods. The three countries with the highest railway transport performance are Germany, Italy, and Sweden. Suggestions for increasing the railway transportation performance levels of the countries are presented.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMühendislikDenizDenizcilikKamu Yönetimiİstatistik ve OlasılıkArticle179310610.47072/demiryolu.11755291154752
