Two :ns_nl_b: #ICNG sets passing through Rotterdam Zuid station as the intercity towards Eindhoven. On the left, you can still see a few old tracks — remnants of the long-gone Feijenoord shunting yard. 🚄📸 #TrainPhoto

#ICNG in #Villeneuve. So schnell wird dieses Fahrzeug nicht noch einmal eine 2000m Bergkulisse haben ;)

Zoon doet studie Industrieel Product Ontwerp (Groningen) en heeft een minor #Railtechniek aan de HU in Utrecht gedaan. Als eindwerkstuk heeft hij een studie gemaakt naar de ideale manier om #fietsen in de #trein mee te nemen, zodanig dat reizigers mèt en zònder fiets minder stress hebben. Omdat papier alleen niet voldoende zegt, bouwde hij even een schaalmodel.

Vrijdag presenteert hij zijn ontwerp voor de #ICNG in het #railcentrum #Amersfoort.

Sadly, no #ICD this morning, but an #ICNG. Still far from the worst train we have, so travel wasn't bad. Up to @tdose day 2!

Very first impressions: not bad, not great; seats are padded enough, leg room is sufficient, it’s clean and smells nice, ride is a bit shaky and something is clicking ever so slightly, winged headrests suck chocolate salty balls. #NS #ICNG #Train

Our chariot awaits! #Train #travel #ns #icng

Morning ride to Eindhoven :ns_nl_b: #NS #ICNG

After concluding my trip from #Amsterdam 🇳🇱 to #Brussels 🇧🇪 today, I post a few more pictures highlighting some design elements and the livery of the #NS #ICNG-B. They are the new generation 200 kph trainsets which provide an hourly, and fast, service between the two cities.

From #Amsterdam 🇳🇱 #Schipol to #Brussels 🇧🇪 with an #NS #ICNG (standing for InterCity New Generation, I think). The NS Ticket App knows the type, and the composition of the train, labelled “#Eurocity Direct”. We travel over the high-speed line, paralleling the conventional one.

Okay so #NS presented the new #DDNG train to the public today. With a mockup they gave some first impressions of the interior. I have to say I am not that impressed. Like with the #ICNG it has the looks of it they tried to fit all kinds of wishes in one train. Let me elaborate in this thread. All images I use are courtesy of NS btw and can be found here: https://nieuws.ns.nl/ns-presenteert-nieuwe-dubbeldekker/

Imagine that you book an international train. You expect crowds so you book 1st class and add seat reservation as well.
They will assign you a seat number 22. You board the train and notice that the seat number 23 is already taken.
Maybe that's why they don't do seat reservations at all. 😉

ICNG news update:
All rejected #ICNG trainsets have finally left the Netherlands, for repair in Poland or Switzerland. The latest to leave was 3303. All sets now in the Netherlands are approved or being approved at the moment

ICNG-V is also no longer allowed in solo operation during time table period 6 (October-december) on a couple of lines because of detection problems, including Tilburg - Boxtel. This is not new, SNG and FLIRT also have this restriction during leaf fall season. ICNG-VIII does have four powered bogies, and isn't suffering from the same problem.

From December on, #NS #Alstom #Coradia #ICNG (for #InterCity New Generation) units will provide fast hourly services between #Brussels 🇧🇪 and #Amsterdam 🇳🇱. They are currently performing test runs. (Trivia: the bathroom decor comes with a Belgian touch. Here: Zeebrugge beach.)

Trains seen at #Rotterdam 🇳🇱 station earlier today: #ICNG-B unit #3320 (with #Alstom technicians on board, in view of the certification of this brand new trainset I guess) and #ICM #4210, originally named “Koploper”, before the front doors were sealed off.

April 1985: Belgian class 25.5 electrics were operating #Brussels 🇧🇪 to #Amsterdam 🇳🇱 push-pull trainsets with #NMBS and #NS cars. These trains are long gone.
New #Alstom 200 kph #ICNG-B EMUs will soon perform 32 Brussels to Amsterdam round trips daily. Travel time: two hours.

Problemen op het spoor zijn niets minder dan nationale crisis (NRC)

Duurder reizen, in (nog) viezere treinen, zonder de fundamentele problemen op het spoor snel en effectief aan te pakken: het zou alle alarmbellen in politiek Den Haag moeten laten afgaan. Dit is een nationale crisis.

De #ICNG in #Mechelen. 'Testtrein' volgens de papiertjes op de deuren. Heb 'm al een keer binnen Nederland genomen. Zal fijn zijn als'ie (eindelijk) ook naar Brussel gaat.

Extra trains betw. #Brussels & #Amsterdam from the end of this year: 1 hourly fast train (#ICNG) betw. Bxl #MidiStation & ... #Lelystad via #AmsterdamZuid + 1 hourly classic IC (run by #NMBS) betw. Brussels & #Rotterdam via #ZaventemAirport, #Mechelen & #Breda.

As there are no more trains in the Netherlands this year, I've done the tally and this is my top 6 most used train sets for 2023:

6. #FLIRT TAG 2011 (7 times)
6. #SNG 2328 (7 times)
6. #SNG 2351 (7 times)
3. #SNG 2356 (8 times)
3. #SNG 3035 (8 times)
1. #ICNG 3222 (9 times)

Congratulations 3222, who was the first ICNG-VIII that went into passenger service on 19 March 2023 😊

Net aangekondigd: IC Brussel-Amsterdan wordt doorgetrokken naar Berlijn en Warschau #Wschodnia, met #ICNG!

Just announced: IC Brussel Amsterdam to be prolonged to Berlin and Warsaw Wschodnia, with ICNG!

“Traction problems”, I just overheard from the cab. That’s me missing my connecting train home then. No biggie, I suppose, and they’re still testing the #ICNG

Edit: that’s our train cancelled. But, as luck would have it, my connecting train is also delayed and I’m already in the zone, with overlap. I’m calling mark room.

(Wait, sorry, no, I lapsed into sailing rules of racing there.)

Woot, my first time on an #NS #ICNG.

First impressions: pretty, not many doors, another train that has music on its kind.

#wee #woo #🎶🎶

Last week the #ICNG with package for Belgium got approved! The necessary training for drivers on the Amsterdam - Brussel/Bruxelles route started this week.

Two #ICNG in a relationship 💞

Super tof die nieuwe intercity. Rijdt lekker, stopcontacten, mooie inrichting. Alleen past de kleinste vouwfiets jammer genoeg *net* niet onder het bagagerek.
