Largest?[edit]

Both the articles about Amsterdam and Utrecht Central Stations claim they're the largest stations in the Netherlands. Since Utrecht has the largest number of passengers, the most tracks and the largest footprint area (after renovation), shouldn't we remove that claim here? --Ilja.nieuwland (talk) 08:43, 5 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The article does not claim that Amsterdam Centraal is the largest station in the Netherlands, only that it is the largest station in Amsterdam, Netherlands -- which is correct. So no need for adjustment, I would think. BluLex (talk) 11:08, 5 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

OOPS! Misread, I guess. Sorry for the bandwidth. --Ilja.nieuwland (talk) 08:51, 16 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Baad[edit]

One of the ugliest most disorganized articles ever seen. Baad! FairFare (talk) 03:52, 10 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Deportation to the Westerbork transit camp[edit]

Is this the Amsterdam railway station from which, in July 1942, the city's Jews were gathered in an adjacent plaza square and deported by passenger trains to the Westerbork transit camp? -- Deborahjay (talk) 11:42, 10 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That appears to have been Amsterdam Muiderpoort railway station. – gpvos (talk) 20:31, 19 February 2016 (UTC)

Mistakes[edit]

EBS should actually linked to https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/EBS_(busvervoer). Although it is in Dutch, it is the best article for it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.25.204.196 (talk) 16:44, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Lockers/storage[edit]

It might be helpful for travelers to know if there are lockers to store luggage in the station for people who aren't able to immediately check into their boarding location. Some of the specifics to know would be: 1. If they have lockers or a check in/check out service desk 2. Location of the lockers/service desk 3. Size limits for items 4. Cost to store items — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.145.230.120 (talk) 17:19, 21 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
