    *ahem*

    This is a Dutch route (as a Dutch person I am now very offended you confused us with the 'Belgians' ;) ), not a Belgian one. Amsterdam is the Dutch capital, and Rotterdam the second largest Dutch city. NS is the Dutch national train operator.

    Also, the Eurostar Services do not run along the Amsterdam - Haarlem - Rotterdam route, instead running via the direct and faster route from Amsterdam to Rotterdam over Schiphol Airport, same goes for the IC Direct services.

    That being said, a Dutch route would be really fun, and a Belgian one too.

    Yeah I am not an expert when it comes to Dutch routes I thought they would be similar to German routes, I will try to research some more about Dutch routes

    Maybe change the topic from "False" Dutch Suggestions to Belgium Suggestions.

    Glad you fixed the title, but I'm sorry to inform you (and I hate being this direct to people), the information in your suggestion is still plain wrong.

    The VIRM does not run Regional services (called Sprinter in the Netherlands), instead it operates Intercity services.

    The Eurostar does not run along this route at all, as I've mentioned in my previous comment.

    The E186-hauled IC Direct services only run on this route between Den Haag (The Hague) and Rotterdam, which is only a very short section.

    As much as I'd like to see a Dutch route, it wouldn't actually be this one. There is only one service that runs directly from Amsterdam to Rotterdam via Haarlem and Den Haag, making it a relatively unlogical suggestion.

    If you do wan't to make further Dutch suggestions, or wish to correct the information on this one, the Railway Map of the Netherlands, that shows services, would be a good place to start.

    I really don't like correcting people online, as it makes me look like a know-it-all, and I really don't want to come across as rude, but by including the Eurostar in your suggestion you're giving people the impression this is a high speed Eurostar route, with some NS services thrown in, which it isn't.

    Yeah I think I should just delete the post, as I was a bit lazy making it, so instead I am going to be making something to replace it hopefully a route in the UK Or Germany, I do apologise for the wrong information and I will be deleting this post in 10 mins also thanks jonas for giving me a map of NS really helps
