if you look at the accounts/statistics: staff is the majority of the cost
the official figures here are however misleaading as their "staff" numbers only include those directly employed by TOCs and Network Rail
under "other" there's the vast army of contractors, including cleaning staff, track maintenance contractors, train maintenance contractors, private security, and so on
what's left is fuel, interest payments, depreciation, premium payments to government and some capital expenditure (not much...)
