Meestal zijn de plaatjes op Deventer Colmschate grijs, grijs en grijs, maar in de geval niet. Eindelijk eens een beetje kleur: oranje in de vorm van Rail Force One locomotief 1830 en geel van de wagons waarmee rails vervoerd worden. En als je goed kijkt ook nog een rood en groen sein met brandend V-licht voor de Sprinter die mij van achter nadert (ging net goed).
De trein zit voor de IC naar Den Haag die 15 minuten in de plus rijdt.
