MBS-6 HELGA runs round at Boekelo on n23 October 2016 during the (normally) annual Special Weekend of the Museum Buurt Spoorwerg.

How to clear a big rail show? Try a decent down pour, like here on 2 October 1999 during a railway show at Hengelo with MBS-6 HELGA hauling a steam shuttle.

On 21 October 2012, ex-NS (and former BR War department) 8811 returned to active service with the Rotterdam based preservation society SSN and the loco is seen here with cab rides at Rotterdam SSN.

Just before a down pour cleared up the entire area of a railway exhibition at Hengelo, MBS-2 (still in red) could be seen here on 2 October 1999.

A nice surprise at Beekbergen during the VSM spectacle Terug-naar-Toen: Polish tank engine TKp23 stands -at least externally- restored in the depot at Beekbergen. For years within the ranks of VSM there was some talk about discarding this Polish machine. 
