A train operator running services through Huddersfield has come bottom of the list for punctuality.
Figures from Network Rail show that only 87.8% of trains run by First TransPennine Express were on time during the period from September 15 to October 12.
That compares with a figure of 90.9% for the same period last year.
Network Rail said this was due to “a short-term lack of available train crew compounded by a signalling fault at Selby”.
The best-performing company was the London to Tilbury and Southend operator c2c, which ran 97.8% of trains on time.
Arriva Trains Wales, Chiltern, London Overground and Merseyrail all managed to achieve at least 96%. Virgin Trains on the West Coast line reported a trains-on-time figure of 92.1%.
Northern Rail, which operates local trains from Huddersfield, including services to Sheffield, Manchester Victoria, Halifax, Bradford, Leeds and Wakefield, achieved an 91.9% on-time figure against 90.6% last time.
East Coast, which the Government aims to re-privatise lifted its performance to 89.3% from 89%.
Nationally, the average on-time figure stands at 92.1% compared with 92.3% a year ago.
A spokesman for the Association of Train Operating Companies said: “More than nine out of 10 trains arrived as planned, according to the punctuality measure set by Government. Train companies are committed to working with Network Rail to focus efforts on providing passengers with an even better service.”
