Abstract
Nowadays, the environmental aspects of transport are very actual issues, mainly the energy consumption and GHG production. This paper analyzes and evaluates final energy intensity and GHG production of two passenger transport modes - individual road and railway. Comparison is made for diesel railway vehicle, as well as for passenger cars with different fuel types (gasoline and diesel). The European standard EN 16 258:2012 was used for calculation. The results show the final environmental aspects counted absolutely and also per capita.
