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?

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.

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

Isn't that a rail problem instead of a usage problem? I've heard of rail incidents happening all of the time, along with the occasional strike of course.

Maybe it's because i don't live in Amsterdam.
