NSHispeed (the official name of the name Dutch HSR service) has its site, www.nshispeed.nl online now in anticipation of its launch. Most of it is in Dutch (you can click the English button at the top right hand corner but most pages are not translated yet. It is worth taking a look around. You also get some glimpses of the train set they will be using which have a really great, retro look too them, contunuing the Dutch tradition of smashing looking trains.
This video is also rather fun too watch. Lots of short little shots of high speed trains (a couple of 3 HS trains running side by side). The music is somewhat cheesey, but overall, a good example of how to sell HS rail travel.
For anyone who may one day find themselves trying to sell and design a HS network in the Quebec-Windsor corridor, the NSHispeed service model and corporate structure would probably be highly applicable too Canada.
Edit: Below is the best picture I have been able to come across so far of the new trains. I am sure in the next few days though some intrepid Dutch rail junkies will manage to take some much better photos.
