[โ] Not_Gerard@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago (1 child) Where is The Netherlands? We have loads of trains. Covid ok, but ?? permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] Justchilling@feddit.nl 5 points 2 years ago (2 children) I travel by train sometimes yet i've never seen a train remotely full here in my life. I've seen fuller trains going to the alpes than than those going to Amsterdam. This may be different during rush hours but outside of the rush hours trains are quite empty. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [โ] jayemecee@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (2 children) I'm literally sitting on a train from Utrecht to ams. The previous one was so full that security needs to tell people to stop pushing. This one is also so full there are 0 free spots and the middle of the carriage is full too. Maybe it is you who don't travel by train that much over here, no? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [โ] TinaGurner@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago (2 children) It has been an absolute shit show this evening though. Just spent two hours at Amsterdam Centraal trying to get back to Utrecht. Got on about 8 different trains and they all ended up cancelled. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [โ] jayemecee@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago Oof, I feel you, came to see the champions league at a friend's house, hope the trains have normalized by the end of the games permalink fedilink source parent [โ] Justchilling@feddit.nl 1 point 2 years ago* Isn't that a rail problem instead of a usage problem?

I just think the fact that the non rush hour traffic is so low is making the Netherlands be lower on the list. I wasn't exaggerating when I said that I saw fuller trains going to literal mountains. permalink fedilink source parent
