Intercity (Netherlands)

The Intercity (short form: IC) in the Netherlands is an internationally used type of train .

In the Netherlands there are intercity trains operated by the Nederlandse Spoorwegen . There is a very dense network, which is served every half hour on all routes, in the Randstad and to Eindhoven Centraal / Sittard and Arnhem Centraal / Nijmegen even compressed every quarter of an hour, a special surcharge is not levied.

In many cases there are direct connections on the same platform, for example in Zwolle , Amersfoort Centraal and Utrecht , so that alternating connections with and without changing are offered.

The quality and average speed (70 km / h to 90 km / h) of the trains are more in line with the former German Interregio or today's Regional Express trains. The stopping distances are relatively close, the trains are often used by commuters like rapid transit trains. There are no dining or bistro cars in the national IC network; instead, there are sellers on individual lines on the trains who run through the cars and offer coffee, tea and cake. Locomotive- hauled trains (ICR cars) and multiple units ( ICMm , VIRM , NID / DDZ ) are used. The multiple units will gradually be equipped with WLAN and visual passenger information .

IC Direct

After the failure of the Fyra , all national intercity connections on the high-speed HSL Zuid line (from Amsterdam or Rotterdam to Breda) will be run as Intercity direct (abbreviation: ICD). For these trains, there is a surcharge of € 2.60 (between 6:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.) or € 1.56 (9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and 6:30 to 6:30 a.m.) when traveling between Rotterdam and Schiphol ) to be paid. This can be booked onto the OV-chipkaart via Toeslag-Zuil (located on the platform in Amsterdam Centraal , Schiphol Airport , Rotterdam Centaal and Breda ) . These trains run with 186 locomotives and ICRm wagons.

International transport

The IC connections to Brussels ( IC Brussel ) and Berlin ( IC Berlijn ) are partially integrated into the national IC network and can also be used with regular domestic tickets.
