    Based on perspective everywhere or nowhere.

    Compared to Dutch trains nowhere. Compared to the nothingness in the USA everywhere.

      Yep, basically what I was getting at. It’s not perfect, but it’s good enough to use as your primary method of transportation without fucking your life up.

        People in Germany have very high standards. If a train that comes once an hour is 20 min late it’s considered unreliable. To be fair we can expect better though.

        But As someone who has lived in the USA in the past but now lives in Germany, Germany feels so much better transport wise.

          That’s not having a nice standard. Why should there be a standard for delayed transportation? 20min delays are anyway on the low end when it comes to DB
