La situazione con DB è diventata così grave che ne sentiamo persino le trasmissioni sulla radio pubblica statunitense. Ovviamente, non dovremmo lanciare sassi contro i sistemi di trasporto europei dall’America, dal momento che i nostri sono generalmente pessimi al di fuori di alcune città chiave, ma è stato comunque piuttosto interessante sentirlo oggi in modo casuale.

Yeah, maybe they should sweep in front of their own door first.
Also this claim is just too wide: For example I had a multi hour trip last week and I had basically no delays, same for my trains to work the last couple of weeks, even with construction going on on our line.
Something tells me it was only mentioned to miss direct from an US issue.
DB is a wierd mix of private and state ownership
their ceos have goals to reach for boni, improving the situation with the delays is always one but they get very creative to with the other goals so they dont have to fix this one
The US doesn’t know how trains work. So they have the right to remain silent…
Deutsche Bahn [has ~40% of long trips delayed](https://de.statista.com/infografik/15656/puenktlichkeit-der-deutschen-bahn/) by 6 min or more. American airlines (not the company) had [24% of their trips delayed](https://travelfreak.com/airline-delay-statistics/) (or cancelled) in 2023, with an average delay of 72 minutes.
If we could find statistics of being late than more than 15 minutes instead I bet **DB would be below 20%**.
Well from what I‘ve read Amtrak often has massive delays and they’re system is not nearly as dense or far reaching as the German railways
