Deutsche Bahn has entered the chat.

DB doesn't hold a candle to VIA Rail. Germans and Europeans in general like to mock DB, and with reason, but as a Canadian, I'm still so very jealous of DB.

Due to [these] restrictions, 80 per cent of trips suffered delays of more than 10 to 15 minutes in February between Quebec City and Windsor, where the majority of Via trains operate. In January, 67 per cent of trains were late on the same corridor. Delays have been even greater between Quebec City and Ottawa this year, affecting 94 per cent of trains last month and 86 per cent in January.

DB uses this novel trick to avoid delays: they simply don't count trains that don't run at all as delayed. And then they also sometimes cancel trains for being delayed. They simply turn the train around before reaching it's final stop so at least it's somewhat on time running the other way.
