View on line 161 (Brussel Noord - Namur), looking towards Namur.

If the EuroCapRail project was realised to its full extent, a Brussels - Luxembourg HSL would have been built, and stage 1 (Brussels - Rhisnes) would end roughly here. Now EuroCapRail only consists of upgrading the line speed of line 161 to 160 km/h, and where possible, upgrading sections of line 162 (Namur - Sterpenich (Frontière)) to 160 km/h.
