How we measure
On time: under 5 min
A train counts as on time if it is less than 5 minutes late at its next station. Trains without live data are not counted.
Within 15 min
The broad threshold, close to what most operators report: the share of tracked trains less than 15 minutes late.
Every minute
Every minute, the state of each tracked train is recorded; the day is the average.
A usual day
The comparison is with the average of the four previous same weekdays, as soon as two of them have been measured.
On a route
Delay counts on arrival at the final stop, once the train has arrived. Both directions are combined.
