Same ticks, same stops, paired rows only (series since Aug 21, 5 day(s)). Short horizons structurally favor a live feed; the replayed model here anchors on realized arrivals only and understates the live system. The decision-relevant horizon is 15 minutes and beyond.

How this is measured

Every metric on this page is computed from MetraX's own logged observations replayed against realized arrivals — no hand-picked examples, no survivorship. "Within 1 minute" means the displayed arrival minute was at most one minute off. The shipped-model series begins 2026-08-21.
