In case you didn't know what ECD stands for, #NS has a legend in their time tables. 😁

Another almost shocking experience with an onboard electrical outlet. ⚡

Apparently many people travel with chargers manufactured so poorly that the pins hold stronger in the outlet than in the charger itself.

I don't have any insulated tools with me, nor have I seen any staff to report this to, so this will probably stay like this for a while in the ABv6 part of #NS #VIRM 8640.

On the opening day of the new GB Terminal in Amsterdam, #NS came out with a promotional video that features a lot of people pretending to be travelling.
It is probably easier to hire a lot of actors than to ask real passengers for permission.

Dirty windows of #NS trains are well known, but unfortunately the same disease is affecting even flagship trains of #Eurostar, 400m long E320. Of course, they are still run by NS International and probably receive treatment by NS facilities, so it's not that big of a surprise.


The biggest achievement of the #NS app this year so far: it finally shows correct pictures of newly refurbished VIRM trains. 🥳

The picture was ready on the web server for a long time but now finally the API is providing the correct link:

How come that often three out of four machines at Amsterdam Centraal are full? And what would it then look like if people were used to returning bottles at the station?

Today I was lucky enough to ride the last non refurbished #NS #VIRM-III number 8746 which is due to refurbishment in January.
This is probably my last ride on a VIRM without red/blue seats or closed toilet system.

Tady třeba strojvedoucí národního dopravce žádá „klid na práci“ formou záruky exkluzivity i po roce 2025, kdy současná licence vyprší. Jen tak prý monopolní dopravce může investovat do zkvalitňování služeb.

Geef #NS zekerheid over haar toekomst zodat ze kan investeren in de toekomst. Dan kunnen we terug naar de normale dienstregeling (opleidingen personeel bomvol nu) en weer investeren in reizigers uit de r…
