The PIN codes issued by US banks are for cash advances only, they are 
NOT the "required" PIN code that European credit cards use and won't
work if you try to use them for a regular credit card payment. US 
cards do not (in general) require a PIN code for credit card payments.

I'll prepare information about all of this as soon as I know the

early booking / online booking discounts for Dutch train tickets, and
buying online with Dutch Railways requires the iDEAL payment system that
only Dutch banks use.

That reminds me: if you intend to use a credit card in electronic contexts
(such as buying train tickets at a machine, etc.), you should make sure you
know your PIN code. On the way home from Anaheim I helped some guy who had
some problems because he wasn't even aware that his card had a PIN code.
