Service & tracking issues

Every MARC service problem (a train that was cancelled, cut short, never tracked, or left its first station 20 or more minutes late) and tracking or data issue (the feed showing something false or missing about a train that was actually running fine) that Trackside counted, by month.

Counted by Trackside from MARC’s live data, not MARC’s own figures. Our reading of that data can be wrong too, so tell us if you spot a mistake.
