What the marks mean
  • Departs · Arrives — scheduled local times, published Pakistan Railways timetable
  • +1d — a stop on a later day of the train's own run, not a date
  • Typical delay · On-time — the train's whole journey, not this segment alone; typical is the median of its recorded stop arrivals, and on-time is within 15 minutes of the scheduled time
  • — — fewer than 7 days of recorded runs for that train
  • Over this leg — the change in each train's delay between the two stations above, counted on runs recorded at both (a run whose two stations were logged a day apart is matched too, when that day-shifted leg length matches the train's usual one). “adds” means the train picked up extra delay over this stretch; “makes up” means it arrived less late than it left; “no change” means neither. The figure shown is the middle (median) run: no more than half of a train's counted runs did WORSE than it, and no more than half did better — never a claim that exactly half did either, which isn't always possible to state.
  • A large “makes up” usually says more about the leg than the train: where several services on this page all recover time, the stretch is booked with room in it. It never means the train ran early — only that it was less late arriving than departing.
  • — — in that column: fewer than 7 runs recorded at both stations on the leg's usual booked times, or — permanently, for a train whose journey starts at this page's origin station — no booked arrival there to measure from at all, which will not fill in with more archive age.

Every service in detail

Typical delay and on-time share are the train's whole journey, from 7+ days of recorded runs. Over this leg is the change in that train's delay between the two stations, from runs recorded at both.
