context_page_description: The Lelystad–Zwolle railway, also known as the Hanzelijn, is a Dutch railway line, finished in 2012. It connects Lelystad, capital of the province of Flevoland, with Zwolle, capital of the neighbouring province of Overijssel, and provides a direct rail link between Flevoland and the north-east of the Netherlands.
context_section_description: The line includes a 790 m (2,592 ft) tunnel under the Drontermeer (the semi-artificial channel separating the mainland from the reclaimed Eastern Flevoland), and joins the existing Utrecht–Zwolle–Kampen rail line just before the 1 km (0.6 mile) high-level fixed bridge over the river IJssel. This new bridge, which includes a separate pedestrian and cycle track, opened on 14 June 2011, replacing a rail-only twin-span vertical-lift drawbridge.
