P-Trains in Belgium 2025
For the first time, I have designed a supplement to the Monday-Friday and Weekend Belgium map. Piekuur-Trains (P-Trains) run, surprise, during rush hours on weekdays and on Sunday evenings.

However, the P-Trains are interesting for SNCB/NMBS connoisseurs: … Continue reading P-Trains in Belgium 2025

I have therefore rearranged the lines on the LGV Nord to make the … Continue reading High-Speed Rail in France 2025

However, already in autumn 2023, the brands of Eurostar and Thalys have been merged.

Train Network of Belgium 2023
Belgium has joined my map collection, as I could not find a nice network train map anywhere. I wanted to create a map that covers both Belgiums long-distance and regional trains, because the stopping frequencies of the long-distance (Intercity) and regional trains (L and S) are similar in some regions. As the rail network is … Continue reading Train Network of Belgium 2023
