Getting better! The train station here has been upgraded with a brand-new wooden roof, much larger…read morethan the original. Unfortunately, they demolished a gorgeous old building, which is typical of the city of Ede. I have yet to discover if they have also installed new bathrooms, always necessary when traveling, as sometimes you take more than two or three hours to get to your destination within Holland -- even with its excellent public transportation. Fortunately these days the trains are better equipped. Selfishly I would love to see an improvement at the station level as well. Parking is easy but a good five minute walk away. And free.

The digital directory screen was very easy to follow once we looked online to see which train we needed. There are intercity trains and sprinter trains which are slower or quicker because of the number of stops I think. We needed the 11:13 train on platform 5a to Uitgeest. We were t hungry yet but if we had been, the station has multiple places to buy pastries or snacks for travel. We only had to wait on the platform for about 15 minutes. The seats were comfortable and had options for 2 together or 4 facing each other for families. The ride was very smooth with only 2 stops before ours. You tap out at the platform of arrival at a little tap screen about waist height there.

Very large and a bit daunting for someone new to train travel. Once I figured out the platform…read moresystem, it was a bit easier, but many of the escalators are broken (June 2026), which makes moving around a challenge.

Such a bad boy. The year before I ran away to America, I went to stay with my Uncle in Holland for a second time. These were trips of a lifetime because I was a naughty boy and Holland was a naughty place. We'd buy rail passes (my brother and I), and would spend the days wandering around Holland. We went to The Hague, to Rotterdam, and to Amsterdam several times. Also Arnhem and Utrecht. The starting point was always Veenendaal, either the Central station, or this one in the West. My Uncle lived a similar distance from both of them. He now lives in Northern VA, but back in those days, he was in Holland, and we loved visiting him there. The trains in Holland were some of the best we'd ever experienced, and still are. This station is quiet, suburban, and perfectly safe for two little kids running around Holland with no adults watching them, doing things that kids would never expect to do. I've been back to Veenendaal and to this station as an adult and it seems so tiny now. That's what she said.

I guess because it sits at the junction of a number of lines, and a lot of trains pass through here to all parts of the Netherlands, particulary since Amsterdam is the next major station.

A few years ago, some friends moved to The Netherlands, and they live in Leiden, so we have…read moreutilized this train station to see them when visiting. It is convenient to their home (not a far walk). If you visit Leiden, it is close to the medical center and university. Tons of trains arrive and leave here, so we never had to wait for very long for the train we needed. Dutch trains are very much on time, unlike Germany! If you need a snack or drink, there's a small Albert Heijn and a Backwerk on the lower level, as well as kiosks on the platforms where the trains are. Toilets in the train station do cost so have some euros for that.

Bilthoven seems to be a fairly quiet village, part of the Utrecht municipality, and so it was a very small but busy railway station with only two platforms. I was there on a weekend, and the shop+cafe on the train station was closed. There were toilets, but they seemed to be locked. Entrance to the station was only thru one side, but there was a good number of turnstiles to enter/ exit. With only two platforms, it was easy to figure out which side your train was going to be coming on, so no complaints from my side on my experience using this train station! Yelp 60/ 2019

Mind you, as I discovered, when a train is cancelled, you can still basically get to where you want to go, it is just somewhat more complicated.

It is a larger station and Venlo, and even had a Starbucks, not that I actually went inside and got anything, namely because even though we had time to catch out train, it wasn't all that long.
