Summary
Netherlands trains ground to a halt after Sunday’s storms—trees fell, lightning fried signaling gear, and key routes like Arnhem to Duisburg are restricted until midnight. Utrecht’s lines to Rotterdam and Den Haag were shut down, while switch malfunctions delayed others—though some recovered by 10:30 AM. Nature’s fury combined with technical glitches exposed just how fragile our rail infrastructure really is, with ripple effects hitting commuters hard.
