24 hours of trains in the Netherlands, created by taking one full day of actual train movements, as explained in the thread. SLTwitter.
Wow, they run so late! I was expecting them to start petering out around 2000, but they kept going until quite late, and still had even remote routes running even overnight.
Pretty amazing. I wish I had that here in WA state. Harder to do the whole country given its size, but if each state developed its own network they could interlink.

I love the Dutch train network and the way it also connects so easily to local buses and trams and even has rental bikes at the stations.
We have been talking about getting something like the Free Weekends which, for 30 euros a month, gives you unlimited train access on the weekends across the whole network and just go explore more of the country.
