Where the data comes from

The timetable comes from the official Polish rail timetable. Punctuality is our own measurement from the train running data of PKP Polskie Linie Kolejowe, the national rail infrastructure manager, collected around the clock. Delay is measured at Zakopane: a train that arrived there on time and fell behind later counts as on time.

On time means not cancelled and no more than 5 minutes late. We only show punctuality once at least 40 runs have finished in the window. This page also exists in Polish.
