The Netherlands might not have the most extensive or fast rail network, but it's frequencies are pretty much unbeatable. In some places it runs more as a metro network than a heavy rail one. This visualisation shows that nicely!

Being able to collapse the left sidebar would go a long way to improve mobile experience. Currently it's unusable on mobile.

You can collapse it by pressing the gear icon

Still covers all of Friesland and surroundings for me after collapsing

Nice.

But don’t try on mobile screen. It seems that a lot of vibe coders forget (or just skip it) to add to prompt “do a mobile version of website as well”.

As a plebeian with only a phone I was not able to use this website.

As a patrician with only a desktop I was able to use this website.

I delegated this errand to my manservant. I am quite unaware of what means of access he may have at his disposal but I trust that his resourceful nature will suffice to provide a precis of this internet website.

> It seems that a lot of vibe coders forget

So do many non-vibe coders, somehow. I dont understand why someone would make a website without mobile support in 2026, when phones are the primary device for a lot of people.

Very nice.

It seems the 25kV https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betuweroute is missing. Although mostly used for freight and therefor no or other type of schedule, it would be nice if it was projected at least.

Love it, maybe a filter function to only home in on certain trajectories would be cool. Anyway, great work!!

If you're ever in the Netherlands, you HAVE to checkout Amsterdam's Lelylaan station. Absolutely beautiful.

by xecaz 27 minutes ago

Is this a joke? It's the worst station in Amsterdam, followed by Duivendrecht.

Maybe Gary means those red pipes? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amsterdam_Lelylaan_station#/me...

Not my taste exactly and besides that I can't see anything prettier than a dirty metro station in an image search, so indeed not sure what they mean

Edit: it's supposed to be renovated in 2028, that probably says everything. Yeah, must be some in-joke
