>>1866782https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php?title=Freight_transport_statistics_-_modal_splitEU figures for tonne-km also show the overwhelming majority of it being road transport, with rail actually losing market share by that metric with time (tonne-km being a metric which ought to favor railroads, of course). Some of that is geography: Europe is relatively compact and key industrial centers were often located around water, allowing maritime transport of bulk commodities.
Eurostat doesn't seem to analyze modal split by distance band. We can try to proxy by looking at national data.
