Passengers Thalys: Still here but a croissant

Chaos, but certainly no panic at Rotterdam Central. Except about how the trip now to continue, there is little concern among travelers who have been stranded at the station.

Even joked about the whole situation. "So we went Zoo instead of Paris'" laughs one of the travelers.
Quiet

"The evacuation went very quiet," says Joanne Wefers-Bettink (29), who was with a friend on the way to Paris. A man locked himself in the toilet of the train in which they were sitting, so that the vehicle had to be evacuated. "Whether we just wanted to go on the platform, it was asked."

Croissant

No sooner said than done. But then a moment later another Thalys was used to bring the passengers to their destination as yet, leaving the stuff was not so convenient. "They are still on the train, so we could not go with the other train. Others apparently did know to bring their stuff. But fortunately there is free coffee, it's good to hear, "she says, laughing." This morning I even deliberately not eaten croissant, because we have a 'real' wanted to eat in Paris, "she continues. "Now we still go here but pick one."

Wait

Other travelers seem except to delay, not to worry about everything that happens around them. "We need to Dordrecht and have been here since half past eight, but we can do nothing but wait. Fortunately, the school has been informed and had at school they will understand, "said two students.
