    From my experience, their problems are just of a different nature. Dutch trains are punctual, but the carriages are often in a filthy state.

        You don’t think what, that Dutch trains are punctual or that they’re lacking in cleanliness? You can find plenty of sources about the latter, so you don’t have to take my word for it… bruv

          First one still gives 5.8 in regards to cleanliness and that is from a Dutch perspective not from a European perspective. Second one is reddit (!) and is mainly talking about the outside of the trains, which I don’t think matters as much for the commuting experience 🙃. I think “filthy” is absolutely an overstatement. I mainly ride around den Hague and Rotterdam, but have taken plenty of trains in other directions. Compared to Germany in which i have traveled plenty by all types of trains and compared to what i saw while interrailing i deem the Dutch trains to be pretty clean (at least on the inside)
