Mobile phone problems continueFriday 20 November 2009 Just hours after Vodafone sorted out major disruption to its mobile phone networks, users of KPN pre-paid phones began experiencing problems. Some KPN users cannot make calls or send text messages and 1,200 business networks are also down, Nos tv reported on Friday afternoon. Ordinary KPN subscribers experienced problems earlier in the day. Vodafone's problems lasted over 24 hours. The disruption also led to the shutdown of the Utrecht tram network because tram drivers communicate with each other via Vodafone. Many MPs were also left without mobile phone contact yesterday. © DutchNews.nl Get the DutchNews.nl newsletter in your mailbox: Click here to subscribe
my ortel mobile also was down all day By saci | November 21, 2009 8:10 AM .. And this is why, I use T-Mobile. Trusting as ever, since the last 6 years I've been using it. By Pinaki Ghatak | November 21, 2009 9:41 PM I read more and more that the next big "war" will most likely be a cyber war. How much truth is in this I can't say. But if you think this kind of disruption is "lastig" well you ain't seen nothing yet, folks. By AW | November 23, 2009 8:24 AM How about GT mobile? did it go down thru the past few days also? I can't call my parents in amsterdam til now.. By Jamila | November 23, 2009 6:17 PM Place your comments: |

"the Utrecht tram network"
Spoke with Utrecht Gemeente regarding this last year (I have a problem with the vibration the generate as it causes total imbalance and horrible weird pain - like being sliced in half by a big knife) and the conclusions was that a tram system for Utrecht is too expensive, too much noise, too much disruption to other traffic, just not worth it.
Utrecht does have a Light Rail network.
"Terminus, Utrecht, August 30, 2002
In 1983 Utrecht opened the first new post-war system in Western Europe. Since then two new Light Rail-lines serve large satellite housing sites at Nieuwgein and IJsselstein. This regional network is served by Swiss-built type of cars, based on the famous Stadtbahn B type. Similar cars have been built by CAF for Valencia (Spain) and Buenos Aires (Argentina). The LRV's have been recently overhauled; new livery and fronts have changed the appearence of the cars dramatically.
IJsselstein, September 8, 2000
LRV's still in old livery, but already at the new southern terminus.
In 2000 one of the two lines has been extended to the new south of IJsselstein. All other possible extensions have been postponed. Unfortunately recent history has learned that it's politically impossible to extend the line through the centre of Utrecht."
