North Yorkshire Moors Railway
North Yorkshire Moors Railway appears on 49 archived days from 6 Aug 2026 to 23 Sept 2026, running 7 services a day. 81% of its recorded arrivals were within five minutes, which is below the network as a whole.
223 arrivals were recorded across the window, 181 of them within five minutes and 6 more than half an hour late. At this volume a single badly delayed working is worth a visible fraction of a percentage point.

Averaged across every recorded arrival its trains finished 18.2 minutes ahead of schedule rather than behind it, the early arrivals outweighing the late ones. No North Yorkshire Moors Railway service reached any day's list of the ten longest delays on the network.

Every percentage among the bands is of the 223 services whose arrival reached the archive, not of all 360, and the bands are exclusive. 137 ran without an arrival being recorded, and nothing is claimed about those. Nothing was cancelled across the window, so counting cancellations leaves the figure unchanged. Delay is judged at the destination, a stricter test than the industry's own measure and not comparable with it. The on-time share and the average delay answer different questions.
