   There are private railroad companies Leo Express and Regiojet operating   
   without subsidies on long distance trains in Czech Republic.

   And lots of bus services in Poland (and other Eastern European countries   
   too). Scottish-owned Souter Holding is operating under the brand name   
   Polski Bus on long distances, and many small companies with silly names   
   (one of them is actually named Garden Service) on short distances.   
   Although someone can argue that buses of any kind don't count as   
   "without subsidies", because, in their case, roads are subsidized.
