The drugstore Kruidvat had an offer of cheap train tickets. One full day by train for EUR 16.50. If you make a roundtrip Haarlem-Maastricht for a normal ticket you pay three times this price. I decided to buy a few of those tickets. You do not get a paper ticket but a code. On the site of the Dutch railways you can make a code valid for travel. Upon validating a code, the site offers an upgrade to first class for only Eur 4. So, I did the upgrade and used the first code for 11 februari on a round trip Haarlem-Zwolle-Enschede-Haarlem.
The weather was rainy or just cloudy with lots of wind(again) . The first stop was Harderwijk station. On Sundays, Syntus does not use a big bus on a certain route but transport on demand. It is called Kolibrie. The service is executed by a normal car. I found out that I could see a kolibrie in Harderwijk.
Next to this Kolibrie, also big buses of Region IJsselmond and Syntus were there.
Regio Ijsselmond 5506 Harderwijk station 
Syntus 5154 Harderwijk station
After half an hour i continued to Zwolle. The Double Decker was quite empty on this Sunday morning.. In Zwolle my train the Enschede left from platform 9. A picture before boarding of course.
Keolis 7305 brought me to Enschede. Here I was able to make pictures of the DB-diesel trains to Germany and of course form the red Syntus buses.
DB 643-536 Enschede 
Syntus 3101 Enschede station
The ICMm 4042 of NS ws used to travel to Hengelo. On Sunday’s the number of buses are limited. What I could see was the Eurobahn train to Bad Bentheim and beyond.
Eurobahn ET4.01 Hengelo 
Syntus 3109 Hengelo station

I waited till 15 hours. The time the IC Berlin to Amsterdam would pass. Travelling first class I stayed on the train until Amsterdam.
Around 17.30 I turned the key in the door of my house. Back with sufficient pictures to upload.
