Less than 90% of national passenger trains were punctual during the month of May, according to figures published Wednesday on the website of the rail network manager Infrabel.
As reported by Belga News Agency, this is the second time this year that the figures have fallen below 90%. Trains arrived in Brussels or their arrival station on time or with a delay of up to six minutes in 89.7% of cases.
