Thanks, everyone, I guess these are not isolated incidents. I was not counting 30 seconds as late, but 5 - 10 minutes. And my daughter has a 3 minute connection window in Coppet that she was missing. Or in other situations, the train leaving Coppet would be canceled and she'd wait 30 minutes for the next one to show up.

I'm used to CalTrain, the commuter train that runs from San Jose to San Francisco in California. Not nearly as many trains running on that line, but the frequency of delays we experienced seems comparable.

It will be interesting to see what happens once they juggle schedules in December.
