    ICE trains do service Dutch stations. The speaker probably chose that picture because NS trains (Nederlandse Spoorwegen) look crappy:

    At least the new models look somewhat better:

    The photo in Mike's talk is from a German station.
    Haven't heard such a positive talk on Amsterdam since a long time. His talk should have been called "Go live in Amsterdam" with "product engineering" as a subtitle. But anyway, I heard a few good things on product engineering that I do like and didn't know.
