Deutsche Bahn’s punctuality rate was 62.5% in 2024, and 74.4% in 2015. Germany’s rail operator counts a train as late if it is delayed by six minutes or more.

Germany really needs to finally separate high speed trains from regional and cargo trains. That is the only way to finally reduce delays. It will cost a lot, but still badly needed. However given how car brained the current government is, that is unlikely. I sometimes hope China kills the German car industry for that reason. At least EVs make it weaker, which is good.
