In case you like vintage trains and are visiting the Netherlands, you should go to Apeldoorn and take the steam train to the depot of Beekbergen. This is the home of the
VSM. The VSM has a fleet of running vintage steam engines and diesels and runs regular with steam trains between Apeldoorn, Eerbeek and sometimes even Dieren. The amount of engines, passenger cars and rolling stock is above average for a heritage branch line. Here are some pictures to share the experience. These pictures were taken on a humid overcast day early June 2012.
