New High Speed Train Links Amsterdam to Brussels

There was some great news for Amsterdam (and European travelers in general yesterday) when the new high speed train linking to Brussels took its first journey. The train travels at speeds of 300kph, and cuts the journey time from Brussels to Amsterdam to 1hr and 53mins (50 mins quicker than previously) - Amsterdam to Cologne is cut in half to approx 1hr and 47mins. Amazing stuff we think you'll agree - Amsterdam now makes an even more appealing base for your European Travels!
