On 14 December 2024, VSM 50 307 quits Arnhem Centraal in front of the six times daily Christmas-Express steam shuttle train between Arnhem Centraal and Nijmegen. The weekend of 14/15 December 2024 VSM deployed six shuttle services with one train set, consisting of a dozen of coaches (from local two-axle wagons to luxurious dining cars) and a steam loco at each end. ON the evening of the 14th however, 50 307 took minor damages and the preservationist of the VSM decided to replace the grossOhr (Big Ear) with two Dutch 1950s Diesel locomotives.

Tram loco SHM-8 Ooievaar, built in 1908 by Backer&Rueb at Breda (NL) banks a steam special into Hoorn SHM on a grey 4 July 2026. The wagon behind/just before the loco used to be a freight wagon adapted for passenger traffic as an emergency just after WW-2, when genuine passenger coaches were in very short supply and one had to make ado.
