VSM newby 41 241 runs round at Dieren
(ID 50357)
VSM's newby 41 241 receives attention at the VSM works in Beekbergen on 3 September 2023 during the Terug naar Toen steam train festival.
On 23 August 2023 RFO 1837 passes through Hulten with a tank train toward Bad Bentheim.



VSM newby 41 241 runs round at Dieren on 3 September to haul one coach back to Beekbergen. THis engine was in the posession of Dampflok-Tradition Oberhausen. Due to lack of room, the Oberhauseners decided to store 41 241 at the SSN in Rotterdam Noord Goederen. The SSN however, has no line of her own and a constant feature of her history is the Sword of Damocles in the guise of expansion plans for domestic environments, forcing the SSN to relocate a few times lock, stock and barrel. In 2015 VSM bought 41 241 from the Germans and started to restore her directly in operational condition. With succes: shortly before the September festival Terug naar Toen the loco had concluded test rides.

After ten years of restauration, ZLSM, ex VSM 52 532 is active again sincs May 2026. Here she stands at Schin op Geul on 19 August 2026 before a fully loaded steam train to Simpelveld. This train arrived 20 minutes earlier from Simpelveld, so a quick run round of the old steamer was on order -and performed perfectly.

It is Saturday 5 September 2026 and the first saturday of September and that means the VSM train bonanza Terug naar Toen (Back to Yonder) that sees every hour a steam train between the VSM's head quartes Beekbergen and Apeldoorn (connecting to the national railways network); five steam trains to Dieren (connecting with the national railways network) and every 45 minutes a steam train to and from Loenen. Ex-DR ReKo 50 3654 -including some socialists flagging- passes a score (indeed 20+!) photographers near Lieren with a train from Loenen that will end at nearby Beekbergen.
