Netherlands: NS’ maintenance under scrutiny

Dutch railway operator Nederlandse Spoorwegen (NS) has recorded significantly more train delays this year due to faulty trains, according to public transit association Maatschappij Voor Beter OV. So far this year 188 trains broke down, 61% more than in the first quarter of 2015.
According to the public transit association, the increase can be attributed to NS’ delaying maintenance due to lack of equipment. NS confirmed that there is an increase in broken trains, but denied all allegations of overdue maintenance.
