Remarks & Notes |
Steam locomotives BR 23 #071 and BR 65 #018 are seen during the blue hour at Beekbergen, the main station of the museum railway VSM (De Veluwsche Stoomtrein Maatschappij). BR 23 #071 is a "Neubau" locomotive that was built in 1956 by Lokomotivfabrik Jung in Jungenthal for the Deutsche Bundesbahn. It was retired in 1978 and was sold to VSM in the Netherlands. BR 65 #018 is also a "Neubau" 2-8-4 Tank engine that was built in 1956 for the Deutsche Bundesbahn DB by Krauss-Maffei in München-Allach. It had a short career in regular service, was already retired in 1973, went afterwards to the German steam locomotive museum (DDM - Deutsches Dampflokomotivmuseum) in Neuenmarkt. It has been owned by the Stoom Stichting Nederland since 1991 and is now running on the VSM on loan. The VSM has an impressive collection of german steam locomotives in operating condition and the friendly staff is really dedicated. |
