@sha2nk_t I got a bit curious because of the high cancellation rate of 6.2% for Switzerland. This is only long-distance trains. You are essentially measuring how many long-distance trains arrive from Germany at that point. 6.4K views · 96 likes · 1 reposts · 6 replies Open on X →

Want us to investigate something specific? Which routes are worst on Fridays? Which operator cancels the most? Is Berlin → Munich actually getting better? Send us the question and we'll dig into the data 👇 https://t.co/jA7fM4KqsS 12K views · 48 likes · 0 reposts · 8 replies Open on X →

France is probably the sleeper result. 🇫🇷 80.3% on time. That's: +8.5 pts vs Austria +19.8 pts vs Italy +30.6 pts vs Germany France sits much closer to the Swiss/Dutch group than Germany does to France. 15.3K views · 85 likes · 1 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

🇨🇭 Switzerland had the highest cancellation rate in the table: 6.2% Yet when trains run, 94.5% run on time. Meanwhile Austria cancels just 1.2%. Do people detest delays more than cancellations? (3/6) 18.2K views · 71 likes · 1 reposts · 9 replies Open on X →

And then there's Germany. 🇩🇪 Only 49.7% of long-distance trains were on time. That's less than half. Average delay: 🇳🇱 Netherlands: 1.2 min 🇩🇪 Germany: 13.9 min That's about 11.6× higher. (4/6) 17.8K views · 136 likes · 6 reposts · 7 replies Open on X →

First surprise: 🇳🇱 The Netherlands beat Switzerland. 🥇 Netherlands: 94.7% on time 🥈 Switzerland: 94.5% Just 0.2 percentage points separate them. But Switzerland has another rather interesting statistic... (2/6) 20.4K views · 140 likes · 6 reposts · 14 replies Open on X →
