Take the Direct Shuttle Train into Maliebaan Station

Categories: Transportation | Traveling

Instead of taking a regular city bus or walking from the city center, arrive in style by taking the historic shuttle train (Pendeltrein) directly from Utrecht Centraal to Utrecht Maliebaan station. The train pulls right into the museum's historic 19th-century platform hall, making the arrival part of the attraction itself.

The shuttle runs hourly (and every 30 minutes on peak weekends and school holidays) between Utrecht Centraal Platform 2 and Utrecht Maliebaan. You can use standard public transport payment methods, including contactlessly tapping in and out with your credit card, debit card (OVpay), or an OV-chipkaart.
