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.

Jaffar Express 40DN, booked at 7h 25m for the journey. That is the timetable's figure. Whether it holds on the day is what the delay columns describe.

Measured from recorded runs, not from the timetable. 5 of 5 services on this route currently have enough recorded history to rank at all.

Yes. 2 of the 5 scheduled services are booked to arrive on a later day than they depart: Jaffar Express 40DN, Awam Express 14DN.
Do trains lose time between Lahore Jn. and Samasata Jn?
Typically yes. Awam Express 14DN adds about 1h 13m to its delay over this leg, measured across 35 recorded runs. That is the CHANGE over the leg, not how late the train arrives: a train can run late its whole journey and add nothing here.
How far is it from Lahore Jn. to Samasata Jn by train?
It is between 454 and 462 km along the track, depending on the service. Measured by summing our own GPS traces of trains running the route, not the straight-line distance between the two stations, which is always shorter than the rails. That is measured on 3 of the 5 services; the rest of the track on this route has not been traced yet.
Are these Lahore Jn. to Samasata Jn timings the real arrival times?
No. The departure and arrival columns are what the published timetable books. The delay columns beside them are what we recorded actually happening, from the operator's own reports and from GPS traces of the trains. Where a delay figure is blank we do not yet hold enough recorded runs to publish one.
