How are the 7 risk factors calculated?

The algorithm assigns a different weight to each factor: track works (20%), weather (18%), operator punctuality (17%), strikes (15%), congestion (12%), technical faults (10%), trend (8%). Data comes from institutional sources such as Viaggiatreno, RFI, OpenMeteo and MIT.

Can I get an alert if the risk changes?

Yes, after analysing your train you can enter your email to receive a free alert. We will notify you if the risk score changes significantly. You can cancel the alert at any time.

Is the data reliable?

TrainGuard uses data from institutional and public sources: Viaggiatreno for train history, RFI for track works, OpenMeteo for weather, MIT for punctuality statistics. The risk score is an indicative estimate and does not replace official operator communications.

Is my email used for marketing?

No. Your email is used solely to send you the train alert you requested. We do not send newsletters, promotions or marketing communications. Your email is automatically deleted 30 days after the travel date.
