To add to the previous reply, trains to Amsterdam are half-hourly. To Brussels it’s an hourly connection with one change in Liège which takes 1h46 in total. A ticket is €25,40 for a single but it might be possible to get a cheaper ticket by splitting on the border or by using a senior or...

I don’t think we have a proper disputes section on any relevant forum in the Netherlands. I’ve seen this kind of threads on the NS forum but that’s about it. It also really depends on the type of problem he had. Did he need to buy a new ticket or was he fined?

Mostly true, but with exceptions of course… It depends on the route.

In France, I don’t know about a national timetable but regional trains can be found on the ter.sncf.fr regional websites. Unfortunately, you first need to know which region and then you can go to the timetable page. On that page, you can choose the route from a dropdown menu and then you’ll get...

Venezia Santa Lucia?

Indeed! Very quick!

No, but in the right area of the world

I also did the first time but I later discovered the bay platforms at the side which are not covered like the rest of the station. The next question has no buildings in sight but I think there should be enough clues:

Winterthur in Switzerland?

Did you use the domestic or the international journey planner of NS?

Oops, I shouldn't write late at night without double-checking, it is the N10 which was converted into the A63

I would add the A10 south of Bordeaux and I believe also that parts of the A84 has been upgraded from dual carriageway to motorway, especially the southern end. The main reason I think why France has built so much is because of the toll concessions. It saves the government a lot of investment...

Even in The Netherlands school runs are a problem but I expect situations we perceive as problem would be acceptable in the UK. Over the years more parents started to bring their children to school using the car instead of bicycle leading to chaotic situations around schools. Solutions are often...

Is it Nantes?

It's on this page under the Q&A part: https://www.sncf-connect.com/intercites which translates to (my quick translation):

The DSB guard in the Copenhagen - Hamburg EC checked reservations of those travelling with flexible tickets last week, but everybody did have one, so no idea what the penalty would be in practice.

I bought a hard plastic Navigo Easy in February at Gare du Nord from a ticket machine, so not even that long ago.

For border-crossing, Maastricht is the ideal location. Liege and Aachen are easy to go to from there and the environment in this southern part of the country is totally different from the rest. The disadvantage is the distance from Utrecht (about 2 hours each way). The other border crossings...

This isn't a sign showing one way which also applies to bikes (and it's in the Netherlands, not in Belgium). This is just a local thing in Maastricht as far as I know. I haven't seen it anywhere else. What they do is that they put signs underneath showing it's only applicable to motorised...

I’ve just bought some Weekend tickets and I had to select the dates for the outward and return dates. They will give you two separate dated portions so I don’t think you can do an overnight break of journey, only on the day on the ticket.
