A real-time process algebra is presented that features stochastic delays governed by general distributions. In a setting of weak choice, dependent and independent alternative and parallel composition are distinguished. This enables an expansion law for the parallel operator, as well as modular process definitions. The interplay of real-time, stochastic delays and immediate actions is illustrated by a modeling of the G/G/1/\infty queue.
