State-owned Dutch rail operator NS is in the process of completing a project to improve the passenger information systems on one of the densest rail networks in Europe by using wireless internet connectivity for more efficient and up-to-the-minute reporting. The company runs 5000 trains a day serving around a billion passengers a year.

As part of a first-aid drive, Dutch National Railways is introducing disposable bags for passengers who need the bathroom on commuter trains that do not have restrooms, according to reports.
