Square Off! Cockerill has proven that steam engines can be perfectly square.

(ID 43193)

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.

Square Off! Cockerill has proven that steam engines can be perfectly square. On 23 October 2016 MBS-2 shows herself at Haaksbergen, restored back to her last commercial revenue-earning guise of the Sas van Gent Zuid-Chemie.

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. 
