@quin_antarctic I also often notice the same thing where delays are not properly tracked across borders. Train operators generally only see delay within their "home" country but default to "on time" once abroad.

In my opinion, this is why the upcoming EU regulation on passenger rights should include mandatory tracking of delays across Europe in an open data manner. There cannot be effective compensation if operators pretend delays don't happen. cc @erpu @jon @stefanlindbohm @bovine3dom

@cycling_on_rails IIRC the new TSI regs do have some clauses trying to prevent such orphaned trains. so in theory it should get better within the next five years

(and delay data must be released with a real open licence as opposed to the highly commercially sensitive stuff like "where is the Speisewagen?")

@wnd might know more

@quin_antarctic @erpu @jon @stefanlindbohm

@Sobex sorry it was a joke for maybe three people in the world

the new TSI regs force railways to publish train formation (which carriage is where) but only requires them to release it under "no derivatives, non-commercial" usage restrictions

which is clearly completely bonkers because what kind of unfair commercial advantage can you get from knowing where first class is? or the restaurant car?
