take the #52 metro to Zuid/WTC from Central >
to clarify - take that metro line in the direction of Zuid/WTC not to it
But if you want to take trains in many directions you can take the metro to Zuid/WTC station and catch trains there for connections to all over The Netherlands without enduring the often hectic nature of Centraal Station and may be about as quick.
Menachem no doubt meant in the direction of and thank Fodor's god for him and his awesome wealth of info on Amsterdam the Netherlands in general. Heck he's even an expert on coffeeshops! Dank u very wel!

PalenQ,
We keep meeting on my two threads for this trip. Thanks.
If Menachem is an expert on coffee shops then maybe he can fill in. We don't usually eat breakfast in our hotel as we like to try different places. And since we eat very little for lunch that only really leaves dinners. Also, when we go on a day trip starting in the morning, we may pick something up on the way to the train and eat on the train.
I will look into using alternative train stations. That's good info.
Maybe some other Menachim questions. We're looking at a few day trips from Amsterdam. Any opinions would be very much appreciated.
Though not in Netherlands Ghent is high on the list of possibilities (we've been to Brugges twice over the years. Went there for an overnight last year. We loved it). Also possibilities are Rotterdam and Utrecht.
With possibly 3 day trips we'll still have about 2 1/2 days in Amsterdam ( the half day is the day we arrive from Mainz) (we've been there twice over the years but not recently). Is a few hours in Zaanse Shans worth the effort?
