That's not correct, statistically about 90% of the train arrives at a station in time. A few years ago the lowest percentage was 82%. In the Netherlands we have sharper rules, we called a train which was more than 2 minutes late, too late. While in the most parts of Europe a train was late when a train was 5 minutes late.

For example England should be horrifying, since none of the material seems to be up to date.

het klopt wel dat vertraging vaak op dezelfde trajecten plaats vind, dus dat is mogelijk. Vertraging tussen bijvoorbeeld Zwolle en Leeuwarden is daarentegen weer een zeldzaamheid

Vertraging tussen Arnhem en Winterswijk is daarentegen geen zeldzaamheid. :)

You should come here (Bratislava) and try to take a train to Budapest or even Beograd :) 1-2 hours delays are common. But intrastate links are relatively OK (max 10 minutes late, not so often), but I guess delays are much more common than in NL :) And in Czech Republic, there is the same situation like in Slovakia - just for an illustration.
