Recorded from 00:00 to 23:58. The figures use the last delay announced at each of the 10,372 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 6 placeholder values the feed sent instead of a time (a train “here, now” hours late, or one time repeated at every stop). 99% of the stops of the trains that ran (skipped stops aside) had a delay.

The archive saw 1,219 of the 1,397 trains the timetable planned for this day.

Not counted in the trains planned: 195 more trains the timetable lists on lines the live feed has not carried in the week before (RENFE OPERADORA).
