Hey all...I was wondering about the way we look at On-Time performance. Giving percentages of time that a train arrived at its terminal doesn't always tell the full story. For example, let's say that one train has 0% OTP. However, the average delay for this train is 45 mins. Another train has 20% OTP, yet when it is late, it's average delay is 5 hours. I believe that the average rail passenger is more interested in average delay over %OTP. Not sure if this makes sense...but just a thought.
