How is performance measured?
The Public Performance Measure (PPM) is Network Rail's own headline figure: the percentage of trains arriving at their final destination within 5 minutes of schedule (10 minutes for long-distance, 15 for freight). "Rolling" is the PPM for the most recent hour. Figures show — until an operator has run trains today, and colours follow Network Rail's red/amber/green thresholds.
Note: Passenger operators must have at least 10 trains in service today to be included in the best/worst ranking; freight operators are not ranked.
Data received from Network Rail every minute. Railway day runs from 02:00 to 01:59 the next day.
Note: Data is approximate and may not be 100% accurate.
