Abstract: After describing Japanese slow but steady progress and Chinese very rapid progress of high-speed railways, comparison and analysis of ways of development and those of specific components are discussed. By adding descriptions of European developments which are much different to Japanese, comparisons are made between Japanese and Chinese strong and weak points in order to contribute to the improvement of worldwide rail passengers’ transport including inferior aspect of both countries systems.
