6-7 September: EuroCity and Eurocity Direct diverted via Roosendaal. EuroCity to terminate in Roosendaal.

Due to engineering works on the rail network, the EuroCity (Brussels-Rotterdam) and Eurocity Direct (Brussels-Amsterdam) will be diverted via Roosendaal on Saturday 6 and Sunday 7 September 2025. Consequently,

  • EuroCity trains will only operate between Brussels and Roosendaal (instead of Rotterdam) and will not serve the stations of Noorderkempen and Breda. From Roosendaal onwards, passengers can use other NS trains to their final destination.
  • Eurocity Direct will operate between Brussels and Amsterdam-Zuid following an adapted schedule (resulting in longer journey times).

European Sleeper: modified stops in Berlin

Starting 27 June 2025, European Sleeper will include stops at Berlin Zoo and Berlin Ost, but no longer in Berlin Hauptbahnhof on its route to Prague.

On the return journey from Prague to Belgium, European Sleeper will keep stopping at Berlin Ost and Berlin Hauptbahnhof.
