You're going to have to provide some context. I don't know what you're trying to argue.

A 40% share of tonne-km by rail in Switzerland is similar to the figure for the USA. It's other European countries that have too much road freight.

Note that ships are much more used in Europe.

Just wanted to clarify that this is not valid for the whole continent and it would work for western europe to move the traffic on rails.
