First they displayed the coming train wrong, so I took a wrong one and had to change rails (how doyou say that in English?) after half an hour, to end up in a train that was delayed so that by the time I arrived at Schiphol my next train had taken off. After waiting and getting on the next one, it turned out I had missed the bus aswell. Its just a 15-minute walk, but the bus is just in 2 minutes when its on time.
On the way back me and my friend accidentally ended up in a non-speaking department of the train, so after half an hour of not speaking I had to get off to catch another train, which was so full that there was no place left to sit for half an hour!

Yes. It has the word 'Silence' on the windows, and you can only whisper if you're lucky  I had a man pointing at the sign when my and Ferman started talking!! It is meant for people who want to sleep or study, but it really sucks because the trains are so full that you cant pick where to sit, so you end up in a silent environment when you want to talk and in a noisy one when you want to read.
The funny thing was that there was a man in business class talking so lou don the phone, you could here it in the silence department loud and clear

Them Irish! Why on earth do they install windows which cannot be cleaned on the outside without a ladder? And why are there 2 separate taps? And sockets with 3 holes that make me feel like an electrician everytime I plug in any of my things!
