wes, thank you for your reply. By any chance did you mean Alkmaar? I can't find Alkmaa on the map. As well my rail planner does not show Zijdewind. Do you have a good planner or are you going on experience? If it's a planner, do you have a web site? <BR> <BR>Thanks ever so much <BR>Elizabeth

Elizabeth, <BR>My apologies for the misspelling. Winkel is northeast of Alkmaar, northwest of Hoorn. I've driven through it on the way from Amsterdam to Den Oever and the Afsluitdijk enclosing the Ijsselmeer. As I recall, the only train line in that area runs from Amsterdam through Alkmaar to Den Helder. While it passes through Zijdewind, I'm not certain there is a train station in the town. You can find a driving route and map from Amsterdam to Winkel by going to www.viamichelin.com and entering Amsterdam and scrolling to and entering Winkel-Noord Holland. Sorry for the earlier confusion.
