Thanks for your comment! Yes, we do have a good train system and good bike system. However, Dutch Railways and Prorail (infrastructure manager) do their best to ruin it the best they can.

I live in the Netherlands! Den haag, Rijswijk. A beautifal country, with clean streets, nice people and a nice neighborhood! The only issue is, that they're many junks at night in the streets, but still a beautifal country to being. 1 great thing, is that everbody speaks English (not licherly everbody but you know what I mean)
Have to say, as a Brit visiting the Netherlands, the thing that struck me about the railways there was, efficiency. Everything looked like it ran on time, at full speed and full capacity. In the U.K. quite the opposite, I suppose that’s the price you have to pay for having railways that are 200 years old.
That's not entirely true. The English have one big difference with The Netherlands: More smaller lines that are still open. In The Netherlands if a line is too small they'll close it down quickly, unfortunately. Here the NS (Dutch Railways) want to make a train appear every 10 minutes between major cities. Pretty nice - but the problem is that these trains drive with minimal capacity. 4 or 6 coaches is usually the maximum, whereas it was 12 or 10 with every 15 minutes. So all in all it has both pro's and con's.
British Railway Network: Pros: Very classy British Rail stock still in service, Class 313 & HST ❤️ Catering services like the Buffets on a IC 225 Railtours 👍 HS1 Channel Tunnel linking us to Europe much faster than by sea Beautiful Scottish scenery Cons: TOC system is broken Wasting money on platform barriers at the end of a station, which is not locked you can literally just open the gate lmao Inferior High Speed options HS2 is literally pointless imo and the money should be used to update the out of date infrastructure Extremely limited loading gauge leading to longer trains instead of double decker

Not in special that card, but if you want the same quality as me, you need a decent graphics card. Otherwise the game will run slower on that quality. If you look at this website: www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html you can choose a card. Any card with more than 3500 score (the lowest is the GTX650 TI) you should be fine.
I dint hear many horns in that video, are there really strict rules about horn useage in the netherlands? I know in australia, trains use their horns at level crossings, and stations. But I know that it varies from country to country
Hello, in the Netherlands the drivers may only horn when there is danger. Like when the train is driving past a very busy station, or when a level crossing is broken. Usually they do not horn. Some drivers do horn to railfanners, though... :-)
They actually go up to 140 km/h, which is mainly because the speed limit on most of the track in the Netherlands is 140 km/h, with some exceptions like the high speed rail section between Schiphol and Breda(after that it continues all the way to Paris), where the speed limit is 300 km/h. In the near future though, the Intercity Nieuwe Generatie(Intercity New Generation), will start it's service in parts of the country at 200 km/h.
