It accepted coins only. ATM's don't dispense coins.

Try .nl. Small stations have only ticket machines, that don't accept
notes. Nor do they accept credit cards, only Maestro debit cards (and
I don't know about UK Switch-Maestro cards as they are an odd system
that used to be UK only). There is a fine for boarding without a
ticket, and no exceptions unless the ticket machine was actually not
working (and you have to appeal that after the event).

This, notably, is not on local transport (where you can get a
Strippenkaart from lots of places, and you can pay the bus driver if
you prefer, though you'll pay extra for doing so, and he will take
notes if he has enough change). This is on the national rail system.

Bloody ridiculous.

(While in Prague, I visited the downtown Tesco. It was most incredibly
unlike any of the Tescos I came across in London.)

In what way, OOI? (Tesco stores abroad tend to be other chains
purchased by Tesco, so that might be why).
