And my sister was on a train from Montreal to Ottawa (normally a 2.5 hour trip) that was delayed several hours (I think it was about 3) because of engine failure. That is over double the normal travel time.
Isolated cases are just that. My point is that a shorter delay on a shorter trip is as significant as a longer delay on a longer trip. The latter just sounds worse.
