Switzerland is pretty good at well with trains.

I heard they are so good that they point it out in announcements when a delay was caused by foreign trains (Looking at you Deutsche Bahn)

Haha, DB also does this with foreign delays. I've been in a German train starting in Amsterdam that left 5 mins late - they mentioned it at every stop until Munich.

They were just happy it wasn't them for once.

A swiss train operator excused the 30 sec delay

The german trains measure delays in 5 minutes intervals, everything under 5 minutes in punctual.

And if a train is canceled, it doesn't go into the delayed train statistics as delayed.

Oh true, I forgot that. Nice little talk by David Kriesel on that topic: https://media.ccc.de/v/36c3-10652-bahnmining_-_punktlichkeit_ist_eine_zier
