On the Dutch news, it's saying that there is in some parts basically no functioning system, and that local railway staff have to set things themselves, without properly working electrical information/signalling system. Orders are apparently often passed on by radio between the station staff and...

Just to clarify, where did you conclude they no have two RAIB reports? The report 06/2022 mentions the only other failure by this driver in section 29, referring to section 89. This was a SPAD in 2012 due to a misread signal, which was only internally investigated by the industry. RAIB reviewed...

In addition to Dutchflyer above: The names have changed in recent years, so the info is a bit outdated. The Go Pass 1 is now called "Youth Ticket", and costs €6,60 per single journey within Belgium. The Go Pass (for 10 rides) is now called "Youth Multi" and is €55 on paper, or €53 if you buy...

If it exists, I have never heard of it! The only places I know for checking the stock are here: https://www.beluxtrains.net/indexfr.php for scheduled units, as made by a 'fan' and https://trainmap.belgiantrain.be/ for live information (if you search by train # you get the live composition)...

I travelled into Luxembourg from Liège on an SNCB train. Only had a ticket as far as Troisvièrges; the rest was free. The train was fitted perfectly into the half hourly service from Troisvièrges as a CFL service, and even had a change of train staff so that it was CFL-staffed NMBS/SNCB train...

I travelled for free to/from Athus last year, and it is included. You can't even buy a ticket if you tried. Same goes for the other CFL-owned/operated stations you mentioned.

Gus, they merely asked in which (part of the) train the passenger died. Not what exactly killed them or other details. Knowing where the most (severe) victims are can be interesting to look at from a train safety and crash worthiness perspective. That has nothing to do with 'lack of respect' or...

That it looked like Rotterdam was also my first thought when seeing that video, with a little hint in the passageway of Eindhoven. I then looked it up, and Rotterdam Centraal was indeed made by the same architect firm.

On the 25th of June this year, my Belgian intercity Courtrai - Brussels - Welkenraedt completely skipped Ans at high speed causing people to end up in Liège-Guillemins (Driver probably was thinking he was on the Oostende-Eupen trains which do not call at Ans) And on July 2nd, the Belgian...

Here's an image of the currently closed routes, and the expected reopening dates. The NB reads: "For the lines between Charleroi and Namur, and Charleroi - Ottignies, actual date is to be confirmed after the water has completely receded"

You linked the 05:29 instead of the 05:49, but they both have very interesting route times. https://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/service/gb-nr:31779/2021-06-06/detailed But also the 04:36 from Brighton to London had a weird thing with being about half an hour early...

Could you confirm that you're claiming for ONE single advance ticket, and not a return as a whole? The only option I can see for confusion is Scotrail assuming you were able to catch the 12:07 Transpennine to Edinburgh, only arriving over 70 minutes late. That puts you in a different delay...

I'd like to remind you of post 1523 by our Moderating team saying that this thread is not meant for ideas on how to solve the logistics to keep the railway running with alternative arrangements, but do that in the thread specifically for that. Mod note - now moved into correct thread.

Yes; from all platforms of Aalst, you can get to all platforms of Burst, so it is fully connected to the rest of the network.

And 6. Bowling Silimar to 5., but there's a big bouncy ball on the tracks which should hit 6 huge bowling pins a bit further on.

Eurolines is now bought by Flixbus, although not every route has been part of the purchase package. But generally, over the past few years I've avoided Eurolines like the plague. I've made numerous journeys by coach, from Brussels to/from London, Rotterdam, Cologne, Strasbourg, Frankfurt, and...

If everything goes right, the TOC who receives this will send it onwards to the correct TOC for processing of the claim.

Where do you want a ticket to? You'll have to go online, but depending on your travel wishes, maybe we can also advise on where to buy what ticket for your journey.

Saw it on Twitter this morning. Were also some major issues last night, although not all with the tram-train. But yes, Tram-Train is successful in many other places. The Randstadrail is a good example, with the Zoetermeer routes running as train/light-rail between The Hague Central and...

Yes. I've always bought mine at the international desk of Breda station.
