Smoking on trains is banned in many countries. With stricter more bans
coming into effect every year, train
passengers should count on being able to smoke in the train vehicle. Until
a few years ago, smoking booth was
provided in the vehicle of the Indian Pacific, Australia; however, it has
been removed. At present, no smoking
is permitted onboard at all. In June 2013, a small smoking booth set in
the Aurola-Borealis-Express train in
Finland has been abolished. Since smoking is prohibited in all super-express
trains in China, the only operating
smoking vehicles supported by law, at the point of March 2017, would be
in Japan. This is because of a poor
understanding in the adverse effect of a tobacco-smoke, which is observed
in the three major railway
companies and health officials of Japanese government.

in a high-speed train.
In UK, a penalty of the maximum 200 pounds is applied for a smoking at

operated by three major Japanese
railway companies.
All sleeper-trains in Japan, except for Seven-Stars by JR-Kyushu, are connecting
a smoking vehicle.
JR-West and JR-East's new deluxe sleeper-trains provide smoking vehicles,

the non-smoking area of other
trains. Those who violate the regulation will be fined CNY500- 2,000.
The law was enforced in January 2014.

米国、カナダの広大な大地を走り抜ける大陸横断鉄道、縦断鉄道列車内の喫煙は禁止されている。カナダ、
バンクーバー・トロント間、4,466 kmを4泊5日間で走る ( The Canadian ) でも、アムトラック、シカゴ、
ロスアンジェルス間, 3,645キロを3泊4日間で走る旅 ( Southwest Chief )でも全面禁煙とされており、
一日に2回程度、指定された停車駅のホームで喫煙できるように設定されている。

一方、オーストラリアではシドニー・パース間のオーストラリア大陸横断鉄道、4,352キロ、3日間
走行する列車(Indian Pacific train )に喫煙ブースが設けられていた。しかし現在、完廃されており、
今では列車内では喫煙出来ない。筆者は、2009年にフィンランドの首都、ヘルシンキから北極圏に
向かう夜行列車に、二人用の小さな喫煙ブースがついていたのを確認している。スウェーデンなど
他のヨ−ロッパ諸国との乗り入れのない国であり、珍しい存在だ。しかし、こ車内喫煙室は2013年
6月に廃止された。2014年6月からは、9,289キロを6泊7日で走るシベリア鉄道を含む、全ロシアの
鉄道列車は全面禁煙となっている。現在、喫煙できる車両を合法的に運行しているのは, 日本だけの
ようである。 しかし、国民はそれを極めて異常なことと認識していない。
2017年9月、日本タバコフリー学会画像引用
The 10 longest nonstop flight in the World(比較参考)
今や16時間以上の飛行時間のフライトもめずらしくない。この間は無論、完全禁煙である。新幹線、
東京・博多間の所要時間は6時間以内。近鉄特急の大阪・名古屋間は2時間30分以内。この間、なぜ
禁煙していることが出来ないのか? JR東海、JR西日本、近鉄は『鉄道車内喫煙禁止の世界ルール』
を完全無視、タバコ中毒乗客をサポート、一般乗客に健康被害をもたらしている。
世界50カ国以上では「食事中の喫煙はとても素晴らしい」との喫煙者の要望を受け、飲食店内を
喫煙可としているところはない。6時間、タバコを吸わないと耐えられない人は明らかにタバコの
薬物中毒者であり、治療の必要な人々である。車内喫煙設備のもたらす負の結果は、疾病の治療開始
時期を遅らせ、さらに列車内の周囲の人々に不本意な健康障害を誘発する。こうした忌むべき車内
喫煙設備の悪影響も認識も出来ない鉄道会社の判断力には致命的な欠陥がある。
さらに車内での喫煙行為を明確に禁止し、罰則規定を設けていない日本政府の姿勢こそ問題である。
1900年に施行された鉄道営業法で鉄道車内の禁煙場所で喫煙した時の罰金を10円以下と定めたが、
戦後、10,000円以下と改定された。しかし、鉄道車両内での喫煙行為自体についての禁止事項、
罰則規定はないし、2017年現在の政府の受動喫煙防止法原案でも、喫煙室を設けている限り、喫煙
行為を禁止事項としていない。
「一匹狼の国」著者 医学博士 宮本順伯
全車禁煙とは、車内に喫煙ブース、喫煙する空間のない完全禁煙の状態を指す。
世界基準とは全く異なり、日本政府は密閉された列車内での喫煙行為を認め、喫煙室の設置を許しており、
2020年以降も「機密性の高い列車内での喫煙行為」を禁止することなく、サポートする「世界で唯一の国」
となっている。幸い、JR東日本、JR北海道、JR四国では夜行列車を除き列車内喫煙を禁止しているが、
米国、カナダでは3泊4日の寝台列車でも車内での喫煙行為を排除、ロシアでは6泊7日で走行するシベリア
鉄道を含め、すべての列車に喫煙室を設けていない。
JR東海、JR西日本、近畿日本鉄道では堂々と、喫煙車両、または喫煙室を併設した列車を運行させ、将来も
喫煙ブースを廃止する意向を全く示していない。今までのオリンピック開催国では考えられなかった事態で
あり、諸外国では日本の開催国としての適性に大きな疑いを抱くことになる。また、世界各国が列車内の
ような閉鎖空間内での喫煙行為を厳しく取り締まっているなか、日本は閉鎖空間内の喫煙行為を保護しており、
国内の乗客を含め、最近増加してきている海外からの旅行者の顰蹙(ひんしゅく)を買うことは必至である。
早急に世界基準に合致した規制、列車内での喫煙室設置を禁止する立法措置が求められている。
