Dear colleagues, There are some constuctions on the train route in Utrecht so avoid Amsterdam-Maastricht via Utrecht this weekend. Instead, simply take the trains arriving in Maastricht * via Rotterdam *. For example, Amsterdam central- Rotterdam- Maastricht is no problem at: ... 11.59 13.59 15.59 16.59 17.58 and so forth. More trains at:http://www.ns.nl/ Schiphol (Amsterdam airport)- Maastricht is no problem if you leave, for example, at: ... 10.46 11.16 11.46 ... Stop at Maastricht-Randwyck station, if your hotel is: NH or Randwwyck Stop at Maastricht-Central for all the other hotels Kind Regards, Monica Murero Conference Chair -----Original Message----- From: Philip N. Howard To: air-l@aoir.org Sent: 10/7/02 7:23 PM Subject: [Air-l] trains in the low countries before AIR meeting Dear AIR Friends: one of our colleagues at PIALP just discovered major construction on the train routes between Amsterdam and Maastricht for next Sunday, the day before our get-together. Plan carefully. Phil Philip N. Howard Assistant Professor Department of Communication University of Washington
I was just checking the NL train system website to re_print out time tables for myself, and it seems that they're doing construction on the tracks between Amsterdam and Maastricht and so particularly on Saturday, but on Sunday as well, some trains are being re-routed and it appears from the web site that you have to take a bus between two cities...rendering a two change trip into a 5- train/bus change trip...ick. Pack light.
Check it out at http://www.ns.nl/ Go to trip planner, and put in Schiphol and Maastricht (note this doesn't even get you to the train station by the hotel--that's often another hop onto "Maastricht-Randwyck" one station further south from Maastricht-Centraal.) and your times...
