iamhankhamTS wrote: 23 Aug 2019, 18:30 If I had to suggest anything, it would be adding a new station for the Rijndam Zuid line, mostly for sprinter services. A basic 2 platform station at these points would be good.

Spot 1: Rijndam Hoogbouw - Rijndam Highrise

Spot 2: Landgoed Rijndam - Rijndam Estate

The only disadvantage is that Hoogbouw is on a gradient.

What do you think?
Spot 1 is practically at walking distance from "Blauwpoortsbrug" on line M4.
Spot 2.... Perhaps. A stations of max 170 meter length would fit there (between the signals and the next curve). If many people want it....?
The platforms would just be build along the existing track; there isn't room here to add switches and a 4-track layout.
Hoogbouw: I didn't scout the area well enough so good point. The gradient too rules this bit out!
Landgoed: Anyone willing to have a station there then? Such a simple station but another stop to make the second sprinter service more viable!
All for it! :mrgreen:

Exactly why I did this edit! ;)

EDIT: I was thinking one or the other and not both due to spacing distance. ;)

Copy pasting this here instead:

To make it even cooler, have only 1 track utilize a platform and the other is a bypass track but trains can still use the both tracks. A better way to put it: track 1 has the station. Inbound RR2 trains would cross over to the outbound track and stop, then cross back over to the inbound track. Outbound trains would stop and continue as normal. NS trains would bypass the station on both tracks as normal. And Landgoed is a perfect name.

Thanks for the name thing, don't tell anyone I had Google Translate open! I think it should just be as simple as can be. It's all it needs to be!

Could the station bend along with the track as if it we natural (which I think it is? :| )

I think there might be demand Sjoerd. Of course, your route, your decision, but if it floats your boat, feel free!

4 sidings available for HSL trains for the Zeeburg - Rijndam (-Airport) service, and two for local trains. Siding Z31 is just long enough to accommodate a single locomotive; should you be using a single locomotive and need to shunt around to the other end of the train. ;)

So, 4 sidings at Zeeburg for TRAXX hauled trainsets for the Zeeburg - Rijndam (Airport) service.
Ah ok, Thanks for Answering Tho :D
