@NS_online I paid the “small amount” & got off to change for Schiphol train in Utrecht as I originally planned. Very silly system; pls fix.

@aral@NS_online most curious .. most curious indeed Aral. Am not aware of this tax - collected on the train I assume? very very odd. -
@sfsutcliffe@NS_online Tax on not knowing that you cannot take “international trains” with a ticket for a domestic train. -
