Frank is shocked. On Saturday August 19, he bought a ticket online to take the train from Kortrijk to Blankenberge at 10.37 a.m. Having fragile intestines following an operation, the Belgian had to go to the toilet at 10:20 a.m.

But surprise, it was closed! “I was standing in front of a closed door,” he complains. Frank therefore had no choice but to rush to a nearby hotel. He even missed missing his train.

In reality, it is a measure of the SNCB to deal with vandalism, indicates HLN. The toilets at the station are therefore only available from 6:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and from 3:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. “It’s unimaginable that this might still be done in a public building in 2023. Ultimately, from now on it’s ‘by appointment'”, laments Frank.

SNCB is aware of the delicacy of the situation and indicates that this is a temporary measure.
