"Simple and effective station 🚉"

"NS."

"At this station the train literally makes a circuit around the church. To do this, look out of the window on the right side just after the station when travelling towards Baarn (and look to the left just before the station when travelling towards Utrecht). To complete the circuit, you can transfer at Baarn to Amersfoort. The station itself is also worth seeing because the old building is still there. Unfortunately, it looks abandoned now."
