Also, somehow they have managed to have 100% reliability when there was definitely one train that didn't reach its destination. The 1705 to Sligo was abandoned at Mullingar on September 17th due to mechanical problems. Surely this constitutes an unreliable service or did they fiddle the figures somehow?
Reliability means that the train actually operated - i.e. that it departed.

If something happens en route then that affects punctuality, but the service did operate.
