Article 111209: Amsterdam-Utrecht | Van Rhijnspoor tot Randstadspoor for € 17,50

Almost everyone knows that the first train in the Netherlands ran between Amsterdam and Haarlem (1839), but on paper the so-called Rhine Railway between Amsterdam and Cologne was the first railway line in the Netherlands. Due to cold feet and a lack of finances, the first stage of the Rhine Railway between Amsterdam and Utrecht was only opened in December 1843. This year marks 175 years ago.

Over the years, the line has been extensively renovated and relocated, with the most important expansions being the major railway works in Amsterdam and Utrecht in the 1930s, the symbiosis with the Amsterdam metro and the four-track construction around the year 2000. Today, this railway line is a of the busiest routes in the Netherlands. Using many historical and atmospheric illustrations, Michiel ten Broek and Victor Lansink take you on a journey through time along this very fascinating railway line due to its numerous changes.

High-profile stations such as Amsterdam Amstel, Duivendrecht, Amsterdam Bijlmer Arena and Utrecht Centraal are also shown, as are disappeared stations such as Amsterdam Weesperpoort and Nieuwersluis.

Article 111212: Stoomtractie van de wederopbouw | Buitenlandse locs bij NS 1945-1958 for € 39,95

Soon after the Second World War, the Dutch Railways wanted to modernize on a large scale. Steam locomotives, it was thought during the war years, would no longer have a place in the post-war Netherlands.

But so much rolling stock was damaged or lost that NS was unable to do without steam traction in the first post-war years.

Building hundreds of new steam locomotives would be too expensive, because the NS expected to use these locomotives for only a short time. That is why the purchase of second-hand locomotives was also considered. Between 1945 and 1946 the Dutch Railways put several series of locomotives into service that were purchased from the British War Department and from the Swiss railways. In addition, the NS took German steam locomotives left behind in the Netherlands into service and fifty new locomotives were built in Sweden. Some series of locomotives only served for a few years and others continued to run until the end of steam traction in 1958. But all locomotives contributed to the reconstruction of the railways in the Netherlands and to the economic reconstruction of our country. This book outlines the history of these locomotive series in words and images. Eelco Storm collected many photos for the book Steam Traction of the Reconstruction that have not been published before.
