I live in Mumbai – while the commuter trains have lots of room for improvement, they do run at ~3 minute headway for most of the day, and that’s on tracks shared with the national rail network. I’d expect a metro system with its own dedicated tracks to be able to do even better, at least at peak hours.
Just to be clear, I’m not complaining – 5 minutes is pretty great, and the Mumbai Metro system (separate from the commuter trains) is also worse at about ~6 minutes – but even so, I was hoping this system might be able to achieve times like the Paris or Moscow Metro
I saw a joke where someone in Germany said they arrived too late for the 7:30am train, but were just in time for the 6:30am train. It’s like a meme how late they are.

Yesterday I waited ~20m for the TTC, then went and got Tim’s, walked back to the TTC, and caught it as it finally arrived.
Original ETA was like 5m
