Mike,
?
From various personal and business trips to Europe, I have a decent collection of Cook¡¯s timetables.? Not sure what to do with them when we move/downsize in a year or two.

I also remember reading Bridge Too Far when I was a teenager.? My parents were war refugees, so I used to read a lot of European history books.

Good to hear from you, Phil.

Yeah, that was my only trip to the Netherlands.??
?
For some reason, I decided to see the Bridge Too Far at Arnhem.? I must have seen the movie recently or something.? So after a night in a hostel and then doing my laundry in a laundromat, I used my Cook's timetable to figure out how to get to Arnhem, saw the bridge and I'm not sure what else.??

I came in on the Rheingold from Switzerland and left on an overnight train to Munich.

I only had one day in the Netherlands on my 1980 trip, but I would like to go back. Lots of trains to see, as well as the country.
