Planning train trip to Visé (Belgium)

Post by Purno »

This message is mainly directed to the Dutchies.

For several years I'm trying to drive on every railway in the Netherlands, and there's one little line left to do: Maastricht - Eijsden.

I want to go, but I'm not going alone. Therefor I'm asking if any of the regular Dutchies is interested in coming with me. The date would either be coming monday 26, thursday 29 or friday 30.

Now, do notice though that I don't want to go with total strangers. Preferebly I want to go with someone I know reasonably well, and preferebly with someone of my age (aboutish), so that'll be like 17-27 years (if your nickname is Hyronymus, an age of 29 is allowed).

Oh, you probably wonder where Visé is? It's south of Maastricht, just across the border of Belgium. Shouldn't be that expensive with a OV-studentcard :P

Anyone?

I was planning to do trip to Leeuwarden/Groningen again and then with a GTW to Leer.

I dont know what to do in Belgium though. (On the other hand, i can drive for around 10 Euro`s to Brussels :P) with my OV-studentcard thingy :P

Invite me, if you want. I still gotta travel with the GTW too. Though I'd like to know how much a ticket to Leer would cost before I promise to go all the way to Leer.

Well, you could walk around at the town like Mr. X and me did in Gronau, or we can just take the next train back immediately :P
Are you interested or not?

20 minutes for me.

Well since I work in Amsterdam, when and where will you be? I might visit you if I'm done. :D (Maybe more people can join for the afternoon and evening perhaps. :D )
