Help with switching trains?

Question

I am in Amsterdam, and I think I think I know how to switch traines all that other stuff.

Ok so, I am going to the traines station and going to get my ticket from the machine as a switch train or whatever. Then I go to where the section I go and wait for the train to come.

When I get off the train do I go to the machine again then get the new ticket to my next place I go to. Or the ticket already has the whole thing I do. So can you please help me.

Thank you

When you purchase your ticket, it will have your destination  on it. You will have to validate your ticket or tickets.  When you change at another  station , you just go to the platform of your next train.. I would advise you to write down the number of the trains that you need to catch because often the train that you may have to take has its final destination in another city , not yours.

If you are still not sure , go up to the ticket window purchase your tickets.  Do not be afraid to ask for help.  Check the train schedule boards and signs  in case your train has been delayed or has changed tracks from what is listed on the boards.
