The year 2025 has brought many changes to the Dutch railway network. The changes can be seen in my updated 2024 map of the Netherlands. The connections have been further systematised: Newly introduced Sprinter services run between Amsterdam Centraal, Schiphol and Hoofddorp every 7.5 minutes. All former trains running between Amsterdam Centraal and Schiphol have … Continue reading Rail Services in the Netherlands 2025
High-Speed Rail in France 2025
My High-Speed Rail France map has been updated to 2025. Like last year, there are no major changes to the high-speed lines. However, the number of Eurostar connections between London and Brussels has been increased. It would have overlapped a connection curve. I have therefore rearranged the lines on the LGV Nord to make the … Continue reading High-Speed Rail in France 2025
Rail Services in Finland 2025
I have updated the Finland map from 2023. The commuter trains in the HSL area are shown in purple instead of green to reflect the different fares. I added English as a third language to the two national languages Finnish and Swedish. I have also corrected linguistic errors in both Finnish and Swedish. Thanks to … Continue reading Rail Services in Finland 2025

My 2024 Luxembourg diagram has got an update. The timetable has not changed much. The only noticeable change concerns the RB from Luxembourg to Wittlich. It will run on the reopened Trier Westline from March 2025. CFL has changed the colours of the lines.

Rail Services in the Netherlands 2024
My last network map in 2024 covers the Netherlands. It is the last remaining country that has not been mapped by me, but is completely surrounded by already mapped countries (microstates excluded). It is therefore long overdue for the Netherlands to join my collection. The map is based on a 45° angle structures, a classical … Continue reading Rail Services in the Netherlands 2024
Rail Services in Luxembourg 2024
In 2024, also Luxembourg joins my network map collection. It is the smallest country that I have mapped so far. The systematic connections allow an clear map, although the big difference in network density from north to south is a challenge. The map was part of the preparation for travelling on all the train lines … Continue reading Rail Services in Luxembourg 2024
High-Speed Rail in France 2024
My high-speed rail France map has got an update for 2024. There have not been major changes concerning the high-speed connections. However, already in autumn 2023, the brands of Eurostar and Thalys have been merged. I have kept the colour yellow for Eurostar and former Thalys connections, because there are already two shades of blue … Continue reading High-Speed Rail in France 2024
High-Speed Rail in France 2023
This high-speed rail map is my first non-octolinear transit map. The highly centralised high-speed rail network is the perfect occasion to escape the 45° angle structure. Instead, the network map is divided into five sectors surrounding Paris. In each sector, there is a central ray and an orthogonal axis to it. In addition, there are … Continue reading High-Speed Rail in France 2023

Train Network of Finland 2022
As I could not find a map of Finland's rail network, I have created a transport map for a "new" country again. It shows all regular passenger train lines in Finland. I have applied a similar design as for the newest Germany and Denmark map. However, I had to adapt the distinction between the different … Continue reading Train Network of Finland 2022
