Natural
@kell520702 they both sound natural to me actually! I guess it depends on what you’re hoping to convey with your sentence.
The first sentence, “...which angered all the passengers at the station”, shows the effect that is caused by the train being delayed (the effect). This is more natural written and read though, and not so much when used in conversation.
The second sentence, “...because it has some problems”, shows why the train is being delayed (the cause).
