In circumstances where there is essentially only one operator, fining the operator for poor performance might not be the best way to proceed, as it removes money that could be spent on the railway.
Putting in a place a scheme where management and staff can benefit modestly (or suffer) from an incentivisation scheme may be more meaningful, with safety, journey times, reliability, punctuality, customer service and cost management as key indicators.
