Elk jaar wordt met Hemelvaart de Nationale Stoomtreindag georganiseerd. Meestal zijn we dan bij de SGB of de RTM te vinden. Dit keer wilde ik, naar aanleiding van foto's die ik in Fb had gezien, eens naar de VSM. Samen met mijn oudste zoon op pad naar Loenen, waar we bijna een privé showtje goederenwagens rangeren hadden. Een groot deel van de ochtend hebben we bij de VSM doorgebracht, waarna we in de middag naar Zwolle zijn gegaan om daar nog de 1700 in dienst te bekijken.
Every year the National Steam Train Day is organized during Ascension Day. We can usually be found at the SGB or the RTM. This time, based on photos I had seen in Facebook, I wanted to go to the VSM. Together with my eldest son we went to Loenen, where we almost had a private show of shunting freight wagons. We spent a large part of the morning at the VSM, after which we went to Zwolle in the afternoon to view the 1700 in service there.
Jedes Jahr wird am Himmelfahrtstag der Nationale Dampfzugtag organisiert. In der Regel sind wir beim SGB oder beim RTM zu finden. Diesmal wollte ich, basierend auf Fotos, die ich auf Facebook gesehen hatte, zum VSM gehen. Zusammen mit meinem ältesten Sohn fuhren wir nach Loenen, wo wir fast eine Privatschau von Rangiergüterwagen hatten. Wir verbrachten den größten Teil des Vormittags im VSM und fuhren dann am Nachmittag nach Zwolle, um den dort im Einsatz befindlichen 1700 zu besichtigen.
08.05.2026 Grevesmühlen
So endlich.....
Beim zweiten Versuch hat es geklappt. Vom 08.05 - 10.05 ging es nochmal kurz vor dem Ende an die Dieselstrecke Lübeck - Bad Kleinen.
Am Morgen des 08.05 kam ich in Grevesmühlen an. Dort konnte ich einige 218er bei besten Wetter fotografieren. So auch endlich 218 341 in ihre weissen Intercity Lackierung mit dem IC 2260 nach Rostock. Schön das hier noch die alte Telegraphenmasten vorhanden, leider bald alles Geschichte.

Ct 203-103
De vrijdagmiddag 09-10-2020 werd even naar Baexem gereden voor 2 cargo treinen die van Lutdsm afkomen. Een ervan is de trein die vanuit Lutdsm naar Moerdijk rijdt. De tractie wordt verzorgd door Captrain met een V100 , deze keer was het de 203-103. Captrain bediend deze ritten 3x in de week. De Ct 203 is een diesellocomtief die ontwikkeld is in het voormalige Oost-Duitsland daar natuurlijk ook zijn geschiedenis kent. Na de samenvoeging van Oost en West Duitsland werd ook het trein materieel samengevoegd en de V100den werden omgenummerd naar 2xx. Maar al snel werd de inzet van de V100 types minder en werden de types die geen vernieuwde dieselmotor hadden gekregen afgevoerd.
Een 4 tal vernieuwde en overgebleven locs zijn in 2007 bij ITL terecht gekomen waar deze verschillende taken uitvoerde. De activiteiten van ITL worden in 2011 over genomen door Captrain. De locs zijn hier vernummerd naar 203 met volg nummers 101 t/m 104.
Een daarvan is de Ct 203-103 die hier op de foto te zien met de zogenaamde moerdijk shuttle als trein 51050. Hier passeert hij de enige aanwezige fotograaf de plaats Baexem tijdens zijn reis naar Moerdijk.

Door Corona en familieomstandigheden, waren we niet in staat om bij Plandampf in het Werratal te zijn. Maar na zoveel jaar kruipt het bloed toch waar het niet gaan kan. Daarom besloten mijn vader, mijn oudste zoon en ik in de meivakantie naar het voormalige Oost-Duitsland af te reizen om daar te genieten van smalspoor stoom.
Als eerste bezochten we de Zittauer Schmalspurbahn, waar door werkzaamheden aan de Mandaubrücke in Zittau zelf, alleen het traject vanaf Zittau Vorstadt naar Jonsdorf/Oybin werd bereden. Daarnaast was na 68 jaar Bertsdorf weer 'Lokeinsatzstelle'. Een unieke gelegenheid dus.
Due to Corona and family circumstances, we were unable to join Plandampf in the Werratal. But after so many years, the blood creeps where it can't go. That is why my father, my eldest son and I decided to travel to the former East Germany during the May holidays, to enjoy narrow-gauge steam.
First we visited the Zittauer Schmalspurbahn, where due to work on the Mandaubrücke in Zittau itself, only the route from Zittau Vorstadt to Jonsdorf/Oybin was used. In addition, after 68 years Bertsdorf was again 'Lokeinsatzstelle'. So a unique opportunity.
Aufgrund von Corona und familiären Umständen konnten wir leider nicht bei Plandampf im Werratal sein. Aber nach so vielen Jahren kriecht das Blut dahin, wo es nicht hin kann. Deshalb haben mein Vater, mein ältester Sohn und ich beschlossen, in den Maiferien in die ehemaligen DDR zu reisen, um Schmalspurdampf zu genießen.
Zuerst besuchten wir die Zittauer Schmalspurbahn, wo aufgrund von Arbeiten an der Mandaubrücke in Zittau selbst, nur die Strecke von der Zittauer Vorstadt nach Jonsdorf/Oybin befahren wurde. Außerdem war Bertsdorf nach 68 Jahren wieder Lokeinsatzstelle. Also eine einmalige Gelegenheit.
Na een lange tussenpoos, o.a. vanwege Corona, bezochten we in 2022 weer de RTM. Deze dag werden diverse gemengde trams met stoom en diesel gereden. Natuurlijk stond de lus in de duinen bij De Punt op het lijstje van fotopunten, maar ook diverse plaatsen langs de lijn werden bezocht.
After a long interval, partly due to Corona, we visited the RTM again in 2022. This day several mixed trams with steam and diesel were driven. Of course the loop in the dunes at De Punt was on the list of photo points, but various places along the line were also visited.
Nach langer, unter anderem Corona-bedingter Pause, besuchten wir 2022 erneut das RTM. An diesem Tag fuhren mehrere gemischte Straßenbahnen mit Dampf und Diesel. Natürlich stand die Schleife in den Dünen bei De Punt auf der Liste der Fotopunkte, aber auch verschiedene Orte entlang der Strecke wurden besucht.

Denver & Rio Grande Western westbound Rio Grande Zephyr operating on the main line is seen while passing through a canyon as it crosses a bridge over the Gunnison River in Colorado, Summer 1980. When riding this train you pass through very interesting territory with many sights and locations that could not normally be seen unless you were on foot or riding the train. At certain locations there are highways that are nearby where you could gain access to the various areas where the train operates, but then again in others that is not the case.

I took these Photographs somewhere in the area of the Restored Depot in Hamlet North Carolina during a Weekend Trip to Hamlet, North Carolina sponsored by the Atlantic Coast Line & Seaboard Air Line Historical Society. We visited the Large CSX Hump Yard, Restored Hamlet Depot and several small Short Line Railroads in the Area such as the Laurinburg & Southern, the Aberdeen, Carolina & Western and the Aberdeen & Rockfish.
Unfortunately, I didn't take adequate Notes during this trip, so I cannot identify all of the Cities and Towns, where I took many of my Photographs. We probably traveled within about a 50 Mile Circle around Hamlet, North Carolina.
This Photograph shows at least four Laurinburg & Southern Locomotives (or parts of) parked on Tracks in a Railroad Yard. There is also Gulf & Ohio Locomotive Number Number 9525 in my Photograph'
I know we passed through the outskirts of Rockingham, North Carolina, because, I took a Photograph of the former NASCAR Race Track in Rockingham as we passed with our Vans.
You can find my Photograph of the Hamlet Depot in my Photostream at:

I believe the Depot is in Marks Creek Township in Richmond County?

'Sporen naar het Verleden'is het jaarlijkse evenement bij de SGB. Diverse eigen locomotieven vaak ook gast materieel is aanwezig om dit evenement op te luisteren. Dit jaar was de 'Blauwe Engel' van het spoorwegmuseum aanwezig. Dit dieseltreinstel is vernoemd naar Marlene Dietrich, die op het moment dat het voor het eerst in Nederland op de rails kwam, wereldberoemd was.
Diverse treinen reden tussen Goes en Hoedekenskerke. Natuurlijk veel gefotografeerd langs het spoor, maar een ritje in de Blauwe Engel en de stoomtrein kon natuurlijk ook niet achter blijven. Verder hebben de kinderen zich uitstekend vermaakt in de speeltuin. Het was een geslaagde dag uit voor de hele familie.
'Tracks to the past' is the annual event at the SGB. Various own locomotives and often also guest locomotives are present to liven up this event. This year the 'Blue Angel' of the Dutch railway museum was present. This diesel train set is named after Marlene Dietrich, who was world famous when this train got into service in the Netherlands.
Several trains ran between Goes and Hoedekenskerke. Of course I made a lot photographs along the track, but a ride in the Blue Angel and the steam train could not be left behind. Furthermore, the children had a great time in the playground. It was a nice day out for the whole family.

Mehrere Züge fuhren zwischen Goes und Hoedekenskerke. Natürlich habe ich viele Fotos entlang der Strecke gemacht, aber eine Fahrt mit dem Blauen Engel und dem Dampfzug konnte auch nicht zurückgelassen werden. Außerdem hatten die Kinder eine tolle Zeit auf dem Spielplatz. Es war ein erfolgreicher Tag für die ganze Familie.

Elk jaar wordt met Hemelvaart de Nationale Stoomtreindag georganiseerd. Sinds twee jaar gaan we juist dan naar de VSM. Dit omdat er dan de hele dag gependeld wordt met een goederentrein met diesellocomotief. Vorig jaar was dit de 2530, dit jaar 'bakkie' 532. Samen met mijn oudste zoon ook dit jaar eerst op pad naar Loenen, waar we bijna een privé showtje goederenwagens rangeren hadden. En de rest van de dag hebben we langs de lijn of in Beekbergen, Loenen en Eerbeek doorgebracht, waarbij de nadruk lag op de 532 met de goederentrein.
Every year, National Steam Train Day is held on Ascension Day. For the past two years, we've been going to the VSM on that day. This is because there's a freight train with a diesel locomotive running all day. Last year it was the 2530, this year it was the 532. My eldest son and I headed to Loenen again this year, where we practically had a private show shunting freight wagons. We spent the rest of the day along the line or in Beekbergen, Loenen, and Eerbeek, focusing on the 532 and its freight train.
Der Nationale Dampfloktag findet jedes Jahr am Himmelfahrtstag statt. Die letzten zwei Jahre haben wir an diesem Tag die VSM besucht. Dort fährt nämlich den ganzen Tag ein Güterzug mit einer Diesellokomotive. Letztes Jahr war es die 2530, dieses Jahr die 532. Mein ältester Sohn und ich fuhren auch dieses Jahr wieder nach Loenen, wo wir beim Rangieren der Güterwagen quasi eine Privatvorführung hatten. Den Rest des Tages verbrachten wir entlang der Strecke oder in Beekbergen, Loenen und Eerbeek und konzentrierten uns dabei auf die 532 und ihren Güterzug.
Elk jaar organiseert de Stoomtrein Goes Borsele (SGB) het evenement Sporen naar het Verleden. Dan komen er diverse stoom- en diesellocomotieven of treinen in actie. Dit jaar waren dat de SHM 5 ' Enkhuizen', de SHD 2205, de CREW 2454 Plan U stel 151, de SSN 23 023 en de eigen locs SGB 22 'Otter' en 264 'Sik'. Daarnaast stonden op het depot in Goes de SGB omC 910 en omC 909, CREW 2454 C9002 'Jaap', SHD 302282 'Anneke' en SHD Plan D 60 84 978 1 005-1 Meetrijtuig CTO ter bezichtiging. Genoeg te zien dus. Het was schitterend weer en we hebben ons dus weer prima vermaakt.
Every year the Stoomtrein Goes Borsele (SGB) organizes the event Tracks to the Past. Then various steam and diesel locomotives or trains come into action. This year these were the SHM 5 'Enkhuizen', the SHD 2205, the CREW 2454 Plan U set 151, the SSN 23 023 and their own locomotives SGB 22 'Otter' and 264 'Sik'.

Penn Central ALCO RS-3 # 5589 (former New Haven) is seen while leading a local freight train in the Cedar Hill Yard at New Haven, Connecticut, 1971. It is nice to see a red caboose at the end of this short train. It appears that the PC did little more than the New Haven Railroad in their last days to clean up the trash in the Cedar Hill Yard area. The catenary that was previously in the yard was removed by the New Haven Railroad some time back prior to the PC's arrival.

Voorheen kwamen we regelmatig naar de ZLSM voor de stoomtreindagen. Helaas zijn die enkele jaren niet meer gehouden. Maar in 2023 was het gelukkig weer zover. De eigen 1040 reed onder stoom samen met de HSIJ 22 'Tom' en HSIJ 57 ' Bonne'. Ook stichting Crew 2454 met de 2454 en de mP 3029, de SMMR 2225, de SHD 2205 en De Karel stel 466 waren aanwezig. De SSN kwam met de 01 1075 en 23 023 met een extra rit langs. Er reden veel personentreinen, maar ook enkele goederentreinen voor de fotografen. Een erg geslaagd evenement op een schitterende dag.
We used to come to the ZLSM regularly for the steam train days. Unfortunately, they were not held for a few years. But in 2023 it was fortunately time again. Their own 1040 ran under steam together with the HSIJ 22 'Tom' and HSIJ 57 'Bonne'. Stichting Crew 2454 with the 2454 and the mP 3029, the SMMR 2225, the SHD 2205 and De Karel set 466 were also present. The SSN came along with the 01 1075 and 23 023 with an extra train from Rotterdam. Many passenger trains ran, but also some freight trains were scheduled for the photographers. A very successful event on a beautiful day.

Die eigene 1040 fuhr zusammen mit der HSIJ 22 „Tom“ und der HSIJ 57 „Bonne“ unter Dampf. Ebenfalls anwesend waren die Crew 2454 Foundation mit der 2454 und der mP 3029, die SMMR 2225, die SHD 2205 und das De Karel Set 466. Die SSN kam mit der 01 1075 und 23 023 mit einer Sonderfahrt aus Rotterdam. Es waren viele Personenzüge, aber auch einige Güterzüge für die Fotografen da. Eine sehr gelungene Veranstaltung an einem wunderschönen Tag.

New Haven Railroad ALCO PA-1 locomotive # 0762 & another, lead a westbound passenger train that is stopped along side a platform at the Route 128 station in Massachusetts, fall 1964. The two PA-1 locomotives are wearing what many people call the Alpert paint scheme. The engineer is seen with his head and upper body leaning out of his cab window while looking toward the rear of the train. Further back on the platform there appears to be employees standing, such as conductors and trainmen, etc. The condition of the paint on the locomotive does not get too much better than this, although if one wanted to complain, the the locomotive could be a little cleaner. LOL

ACL EMD E-7A locomotive 533 is seen in the platform area with train 38, (aka: Jax Mail) while it is being loaded with mail, express & baggage prior to its early evening departure from the downtown station, situated between 2nd and 3rd Street on First Avenue South in Saint Petersburg, Florida, April, 1960. The station tracks were situated on First Avenue South and were on a continuous up-grade from the South Mole to 16th Street, and the locomotive really had to work hard when departing the station. It appears that two employees standing by the front of the locomotive are involved with one of the interconnection hoses on the pilot. In the background you can see a mail truck delivering bags of mail that has been placed on a baggage float. The trains consist has five headend cars along with one rider coach that travels on a slow schedule with numerous stops enroute to Jacksonville. The car next to the mail truck is a RPO. If you notice the train has been split at Second Street to allow vehicles to pass until departure time. The station's actual platform was constructed of red brick while the track area was covered with asphalt to serve as platform area and to make it possible for vehicles to load or unload. Behind the employees standing by the front of the locomotive there was a siding with a platform for the old Harrison Hardware building, but this track was often used by express cars. This station was taken out of service in 1963 with the building being torn down after that along with most of the downtown area tracks being removed.

On April 23, 2006, I rode a Speeder from Cordele to Plains, Georgia on a trip sponsored by NARCOA (aka North American Rail Car Owners Association). Since I don't own a Motor Car (aka a Speeder) , I rode with a friend who owns two Motor Cars. These are some photos that I took during my trip on the Heart of Georgia Railroad (aka: HOG).
I took This Photograph Near Cordele, Georgia, of a Heart of Georgia Freight Train at a Crossing with two Locomotives and some Freight Cars. I took this Photograph on the Monday after the NARCOA Trips of Saturday & Sunday. The Train consists of two Locomotives, a Lease Unit LLPX 3109 and Heart of Georgia Locomotive Number 1540.
Orange Locomotive Number 3109 is a Leased Unit belonging to Locomotive Leasing Partners. It is a General Motors (aka: GM), Electromotive Division (aka: EMD), GP40 (aka: General Purpose Model 40) Leased from Locomotive Leasing Partners (LLPX Number 3109), while Blue & Yellow Locomotive is Heart of Georgia Locomotive Number 1540, an EMD GP40, which I believe was built in 1966 as Canadian National Number 4007.
The Heart of Georgia is a Short Line railroad created in 1999 to lease and operate 177 miles (285 km) of track owned by the Georgia Department of Transportation between Mahrt, Alabama and Vidalia, Georgia, in the United States . My Photographs cover the section between Plains and Abbeyville. Georgia.
Samen met mijn zoon zijn we weer twee dagen naar de MBS Najaarsstoomdagen geweest. Dit jaar reed, naast de Wismar railbus, de Magda en Kikker, de ELNA 152 en de 2 'Cockerill' diverse personen en goederentreinen. Ook de pomplorrie en de twee locjes MBS 12 Rij-ijzer, 't Gekje' en MBS 10 'Nijverdal' reden een slag naar Zoutindustrie. Verder stonden in Haaksbergen de MBS 3 T3 89 7720 en MBS 4 DHE 353 in het zwart buiten opgesteld. En in de loods stond de TET 1, schitterend gerestaureerd.
Together with my son, we went to the MBS Autumn Steam Days again for two days. This year, alongside the Wismar railbus, the Magda and Kikker, the ELNA 152, and the 2 'Cockerill', various passenger and freight trains were running. The pump trolley and the two small locomotives MBS 12 Rij-ijzer, 't Gekje', and MBS 10 'Nijverdal' also made a run to Zoutindustrie. Furthermore, the MBS 3 T3 89 7720 and MBS 4 DHE 353 were displayed outside in black in Haaksbergen. And inside the shed stood the TET 1, beautifully restored.
Gemeinsam mit meinem Sohn besuchten wir wieder zwei Tage lang die MBS-Herbstdampftage. Dieses Jahr verkehrten neben dem Wismarer Schienenbus, der Magda und der Kikker, der ELNA 152 und der 2 „Cockerill“ auch verschiedene Personen- und Güterzüge. Die Schlauchbahn und die beiden kleinen Lokomotiven MBS 12 „Rij-ijzer, 't Gekje“ und MBS 10 „Nijverdal“ fuhren ebenfalls nach Zoutindustrie. Außerdem waren die MBS 3 „T3 89 7720“ und die MBS 4 „DHE 353“ in Haaksbergen im Freien in Schwarz ausgestellt. Und im Lokschuppen stand die wunderschön restaurierte TET 1.
Elk jaar wordt met Hemelvaart de Nationale Stoomtreindag georganiseerd. Meestal zijn we dan bij de SGB of de RTM te vinden. Dit keer wilde ik, naar aanleiding van foto's die ik in Fb had gezien, eens naar de VSM. Samen met mijn oudste zoon op pad naar Loenen, waar we bijna een privé showtje goederenwagens rangeren hadden. Een groot deel van de ochtend hebben we bij de VSM doorgebracht, waarna we in de middag naar Zwolle zijn gegaan om daar nog de 1700 in dienst te bekijken.
Every year the National Steam Train Day is organized during Ascension Day. We can usually be found at the SGB or the RTM. This time, based on photos I had seen in Facebook, I wanted to go to the VSM. Together with my eldest son we went to Loenen, where we almost had a private show of shunting freight wagons. We spent a large part of the morning at the VSM, after which we went to Zwolle in the afternoon to view the 1700 in service there.
Jedes Jahr wird am Himmelfahrtstag der Nationale Dampfzugtag organisiert. In der Regel sind wir beim SGB oder beim RTM zu finden. Diesmal wollte ich, basierend auf Fotos, die ich auf Facebook gesehen hatte, zum VSM gehen. Zusammen mit meinem ältesten Sohn fuhren wir nach Loenen, wo wir fast eine Privatschau von Rangiergüterwagen hatten. Wir verbrachten den größten Teil des Vormittags im VSM und fuhren dann am Nachmittag nach Zwolle, um den dort im Einsatz befindlichen 1700 zu besichtigen.
Penn Central Ex EMD GP9 # 7540, PC Ex NHR RS-11 # 7673, Ex NHR GP9 # 1217 & Ex NHR GP9 # 1211 lead a westbound TOFC freight train nearing tower SS38 at Stamford, Connecticut, 1970. Four locomotives operating as a set in electric territory was not as common as the three locomotive lash-ups. In the right background there are set of Pullman Standard lightweight stainless steel MUT's. Bob Hughes was able to get this photo from his tower location.
New Haven Railroad ALCO FA-1 locomotives # 0428 and # 0418 lead an eastbound manifest freight train on an express track while passing tower SS38 at Stamford, Connecticut, 1968. These old ALCO cab units are still performing their job handling freight trains. You can see a portion of the city and highway I-95 in the background. Also in the background you may observe a New Haven set of round roof MUT's. Bob Hughes in tower SS38 took this photo.
