OK, thanks for your replies. So we have: neutrinos traveling through bedrock compared to photons/EM waves traveling through empty space. Neutrinos are 60nS early at the finish line, 730534m after the start. 60nS for light (in empty space) is 18m: are they sure where the start line is? The decay tube is 995m long and the starting point was determined by simulations, 18m is the 1% of 995m.
