Na afronding van de restauratie van het historische mat' 36 stel 252, werd er door het Spoorwegmuseum de tentoonstelling ' Onder Hoogspanning' georganiseerd. Hierin stond de elektrificatie van de spoorwegen in Nederland centraal. Stel 252 was opengesteld voor het publiek. Doordat we er al direct na opening waren, kon ik uitgebreid het stel en de andere treinen fotograferen. Ondertussen vermaakten mijn dochter en haar vrienden zich prima in het museum.
After completion of the restoration of the historic mat' 36 set 252, the Railway Museum organised the exhibition 'Under High Voltage'. This focused on the electrification of the railways in the Netherlands. Set 252 was open to the public. Because we were there right after the opening, I was able to extensively photograph the set and the other trains. In the meantime, my daughter and her friends enjoyed themselves in the museum.
Nach Abschluss der Restaurierung der historischen Triebwagen 252 organisierte das Eisenbahnmuseum die Ausstellung „Unter Hochspannung“. Im Mittelpunkt stand dabei die Elektrifizierung der Eisenbahnen in den Niederlanden. Triebwagen 252 war für die Öffentlichkeit zugänglich. Da wir direkt nach der Eröffnung dort waren, konnte ich das Paar und die anderen Züge ausgiebig fotografieren. In der Zwischenzeit hatten meine Tochter und ihre Freunde eine tolle Zeit im Museum.

When fully completed, the Hub will connect 11 different subway lines, serve 200,000 commuters daily and will be almost as big as Grand Central Station.
A river runs through it, a 1956 Buick, 1958 Oldsmobile, 1957 Chevy (maybe convertible), and several other dinosaurs (cream-puffs) from a fast approaching bygone era of the ICE automobile and private transportation are entombed in the river bank from the great floods of Boulder county in 1969; playing a rule of thirds game along the Left Hand Creek with a newly painted 2024 Amtrak Showcase passenger special with the Colorado Governor and other prominent Amtrak and ColoRail patrons on thier way to Longmont, CO on Thursday March 7, 2024. This line hasn’t seen revenue passenger service since 1967 operated by the CB&Q, and C&S. Now an opportunity for a regional train and even a return to service between Billings, MT and Denver. The “Night Crawler“ may actually come back in the memory of that 1958 Oldsmobile entombed in the mud.
I saw someone else shoot this spot several years ago and wanted to try it when the light was right and with something outrageously flashy a perfect fit.

“ The first train to carry passengers between Denver and Longmont in decades rolled out of Union Station Thursday afternoon with Gov. Jared Polis, state lawmakers and transportation leaders on board.
“We are the inaugural passengers on Front Range Passenger Rail demo today,” Polis said, kicking off the trip from Union Station’s Platform 5. “All aboard!”
The urban sprawl gave way to farm fields, creeks and cottonwood trees as the Amtrak Superliner moved away from the city. About a half-hour in, the train merged onto freight tracks that aren't used used for passenger travel.
“This is a huge moment in my life,” said conductor Brad Swartzwelter over the loudspeakers. “I grew up in Boulder. I’ve spent my entire life watching freight trains on the line that we just joined, and I can’t tell you what an honor it is to now be the conductor of the first passenger train on the main line towards Boulder.”
The 44-mile demonstration trip to Longmont took about 90 minutes, far slower than what the train will ultimately travel when it opens to the public, according to Amtrak President Roger Harris and other transportation officials. Amtrak plans to operate along the route, which will also connect to other Amtrak routes.“

Heart of Helsinki, center of transportation - busses, trains, even airplanes
Getting on the cliff was quite a journey itself. The place itself was isolated and off-limits. After marching through tall grass (occupied with ticks) the view was magnificent. Gotta come back someday

Yeah, points for trying. But it's just a knock-off. But then, since the original has been blocked off and is no longer accessible, I guess that's the best we still have.
Als full time vader en echtgenoot sta ik, op de incidentele hoofdlijnritten van de SSN of VSM en de evenementen na, bijna niet meer langs het spoor. Wat ik aan NS (of andere maatschappijen) materieel fotografeer is vaak bijvangst van stoom of museummaterieel waar ik voor op uit was getrokken. Gelukkig komt het nog wel een enkele keer voor dat ik even tijd heb, maar dat is helaas maar sporadisch.
Door Corona zijn er echter geen evenementen meer. Maar des te meer tijd om zo af en toen eens langs de baan te staan. Ik trokken er dit keer op uit om treinen in de bloembollen te fotograferen. Helaas bleek dat de bollen bij Vogelenzang grotendeels verdwenen waren, op een veldje aan de zon kant na. Op Hemelvaartsdag 's ochtends vroeg met mijn oudste zoon eropuit getrokken om bij het bekende voormalige overwegwachtershuisje post te vatten en diverse soorten materieel vast te leggen.
As a full-time father and husband I hardly make pictures of regular trains. Almost only when the SSN or VSM has one of their rare main line trips, I am able to catch some regular trains too. So what I catch with my camera of the NS (or other companies) trains is often a side catch of steam or museum material passing by. Fortunately I do find occasionally some time to make pictures.
However, there are no more events due to Corona. But all the more time to stand along the raiway lines every now and then. I went out this time to photograph trains with some flower bulbs. Unfortunately, it turned out that the bulbs near Vogelenzang had lagely disappeared, except for this small patch. On Ascension Day I went out early in the morning. I took up post at the well-known former level crossing guard's house and to capture various types of trains.
