Methodology

Methodology: Passenger Rail On-Time Arrival

The passenger rail on-time arrival represents the percentage of Amtrak and inter-regional transit services (i.e., SunRail and Tri-Rail) trains that arrive on time. A train is considered on-time if arrival is within a specified threshold time frame of scheduled arrival time. The threshold for on-time arrival varies between the operators. For long distance trips, on Amtrak, the time frame is wide (e.g., 30 minutes). For commuter trains, like SunRail and Tri-Rail, the time frame is narrow (e.g., 15 minutes).
