The modal split in the Japanese long distance passenger transport as well as its reasons and impacts are examined. Especially the competition between automobile and train and between train and airplane is thouroughly analyzed because the competition in Japan is completely different from that in other industrialized countries by reason of the high performance railway network. The secondary impacts are mainly treated with respect to energy consumption and traffic accidents. The investigation is preceded by a description of the demand development in comparison with the German one. (ERA citation 08:031953)
