I am looking for punctuality statistics

The individual train operators publish four weekly figures on their Websites or you can go to www.rail.govt.uk and they publish quarterly figures
hope this helps

I don't know where in the world you are - but if it is the UK all train operating companies have to publish reliability statistics - % of trains on time, and then those running at various degrees of lateness. I've tried to find, without success, a site listing these statistics in a simple way, but with no luck. That I do quote seems about the best there is.
Later - they are more reliable than airlines - no reports of people stranded at Waterloo International freezing their socks off because all trains have been cancelled due to fog.

look up two indepenednt sites:
www.rail-reg.gov.uk and follow links to ORR ( office or Railregulations ). They have a uarterly bulletin that monitors PPM ( public performance measure) with the delays of trains in the network railThe central Informaion offic also has statistics on this subject. Good hunting!

There is no such thing as a reliable train company..........they will all BS their info to make themselves look good.........but all are as bad as one another. It may be cheaper to fly if it is a long journey! I recently went from Bournemouth to Newcastle by plane (return) for £50............train fare quoted £95...........you decide!!

Stand for hours on end at any station between Liverpool and Manchester freezing your nodules off.

Try the company website - you might find the information there but they are probably all pretty bad!

lol, railroads are not punctual. Basically, you get it when you get it.
