    A train service with a lot of slack isn’t a successful one though, as it would make them not that competitive in comparison to other means of transportation, by A- the journey looking longer than otherwise and B- the extra slack means that trains are circulating less, and are less profitable

      Sure, but the diagram compares train services of different countries against each other, however their scheduling standards are not comparable.
