On the same vein I think many NYCT/MTAB express bus schedules have it arranged that the bus often can't keep up with the schedule while it does its pickups (such that passengers are at the stop well before the bus is), but then there is a nice buffer when making the crossing into drop-off territory so that it catches up to the schedule and may even end up early, especially if there is a liberty to detour around stops that no passenger is requesting.

I think it's totally cool for services to, once past pick-up territory, run early, or even to have some spots have a "zone" (i.e. "train may leave up to x minutes early") for boarding so that passengers are aware.

The most important thing is that services do not leave the station before any boarding passengers were informed they would.
