Dont think MTR is enjoying that robust business in Sweden.

"Despite some improvement during the second half of the
year, 2018 was very challenging operationally and financially
for MTR Pendeltågen AB. Issues relating to a nationwide lack
of drivers and train availability and maintenance, as well as
a new, more complex timetable introduced in combination
with poorly performing infrastructure that is under the control
of a third party, led to higher operating costs and significant
penalties relating to punctuality and customer satisfaction. As
a result, a material loss was incurred in 2018."
pitfall for using a 2 party model in operation and asset maintenance/replacement... who to take which part of the blame ?
If you are referring to KCRC and MTR.. unfortunately KCRC was run at a loss for too many years that's why the running of the line has been transferred to MTR, inclusive of the replacement of assets.
