Hey guys,
can anybody tell me where I can find up to date information about Toc's financial performance? Is there a page showing figures about turnover, profit... for each toc? Or where can I get theses info? I would be interested in received subsidies as well. Thanks!

Such information is produced in companies' annual reports. I believe you can also get these reports for Network Rail too.

After having a brief search it does not look like individual TOCs produce annual reports but instead their parent companies do. Looking at the First report, all the figures are totalled for the whole of the First group and are not broken down in a way to tell you about individual TOCs.

I've posted links below to Stagecoach, First, National Express, Arriva, Go Ahead, and Serco.

I don't know whether they would honour your request but maybe writing to each TOC individually and asking them. Maybe even the ORR* under a Freedom of Information Act request might be able to help you too.

Stagecoach: http://www.stagecoachgroup.com/scg/ir/finanalysis/reports/
First: http://www.firstgroup.com/corporate/investors/annualreports.php
NatEx: http://www.nationalexpressgroup.com/ar2007/
Arriva: http://www.arriva.co.uk/arriva/en/investor_relations/financial_reports/
Go Ahead: http://www.go-ahead.com/Main.php?sFileName=AnnualReviews.php
Serco: http://www.serco.com/investors/index.asp

Hope this helps

*Their current FoI section is very interesting with some of the responses they provide (one even lists ALL the tickets sold in a year from each of about 10 stations at a request!).

Presuming each TOC is run as a limited company then Companies House, although it will cost you £1 for each annual report you wish to read and there is the risk that there won't be some of the information you are looking for depending how each TOC is structured.
