A method of generating an improved transit schedule is described that incorporates real-time arrival time data, such as actual minutes of lateness for each stop for each train in a train transit district. Lateness data is collected over a time period, such as a year. After sorting the collected arrival times for each stop for each route, the list is sorted for ascending lateness. A performance percentage is used to select a time from the list such that the performance percentage of trips would have been on time. This is a proposed arrival time for a new timetable. Finally, a change threshold is applied so that changes below the threshold, such as two minutes, are left the same as on the initial schedule. The final new timetable is published or printed, or otherwise made available.
