Jordi,
Maastricht proved that the information provided by the train web sites was
totally FALSE.
This is something that the secretariat/IAOC SHOULD verify before accepting a
venue.
The Dutch railway site (www.ns.nl) is quite accurate. It lists the trains,
arrival time, departure time and location where you have to change trains.
In the 6 years or so that I've been a regular train user, I still have to
come across a case where the website listed a train that the NS did not
intend to run.
Of course, the system is as good as its input data. If there is a
technical problem or accident along a path, the website will notify
you about that as soon as the data is entered. In practice, this means
some chaos and confusion the first 10-30 minutes after the incident,
then decent warning messages appear.
That said, please explain to me how the IAOC can verify that a train
sometime in the future, will not run according to schedule.
Henk
