A truly chaotic week in Europe, alongside the UK train crash and the unprecedented heat wave.

It could be chaos on Dutch rail too the coming day. Trimmed down schedule on some of the busiest routes (due to the current heatwave). Add to that a labor union strike on Wednesday June 24 (that's today local time as I write this).

Although NL rail travelers are usually quite good at anticipating, and adjust their schedule. So might just be a quieter-than-usual day.

It helps that 90% of the population can cycle to work if they have to. Remote work is also very big.
