• EuroCity trains will only operate between Brussels and Breda (instead of Rotterdam) and will follow an adapted schedule.
  You can use domestic trains operated by NS between Breda and Rotterdam.
• Eurocity Direct trains will only operate between Antwerp (instead of Brussels) and Amsterdam Zuid, and will then continue to Almere (instead of Lelystad).
