Re Lelystad

From what I see they want this up and running by end 2010, that may be optimistic. It seems to me that this is the start of 'Schiphol 2'. The a/p has needed to expand for some time, a few years ago I read an article about a proposition to create an island in the N Sea connected by a causeway to allow the a/p to gradually move from its present position (they did it with HK) but objections from neighbouring countries & shipping interests scuppered that. This is ideal. Start by moving locos out there so free up slots for big boys. They also have almost unlimited space for expansion.

Dutch thoughts anyone?

Tot ziens.
