Vandals put new trains to test
Teenage hooligans are being invited by Dutch transport chiefs to put their new underground trains to the test.
The youths will be given free reign to tear up seats and pull apart fittings in the new trains to see which parts are vulnerable to violence and need improving.
Amsterdam city councillor Mark van der Horst said: "We want to make sure our new trains for the city's underground are completely idiot-proof, and will see if the prototype can withstand vandalism before producing more of them.
"Nowhere in the world is as bad as here for vandals."
