Recorded from 00:00 to 23:59. The figures use the last delay announced at each of the 47,020 stops that had one, as the operator sent it. Cancelled trains (marked cancelled, or with every stop skipped), skipped stops and values over an hour early or twelve hours late are left out, as are 20 placeholder values the feed sent instead of a time (a train “here, now” hours late, or one time repeated at every stop). 100% of the stops of the trains that ran (skipped stops aside) had a delay.

The archive saw 3,752 of the 3,841 trains the timetable planned for this day.
