I'm not Dutch, but moved here around 18 months ago and the rail system is one of my favourite things. City to city is one thing, but many many small villages are linked by slower trains. Sometimes I've caught trains to small villages to do an NS walk and it reminds me a lot of Japan. The fact that I can consider moving to Rotterdam or Den Haag and continue working at my job in Amsterdam is really something. EDIT: sometimes traveling by car is cheaper even with _one_ person in the car, if you don't have the 40% discount. I guess that's the biggest downside.
