The end of an era is approaching: after four decades time has begun to come to say farewell to the hauled ICR stock in the Netherlands with the approval of Alstom-build ICNG EMUs in January 2023.

(ID 48383)


The end of an era is approaching: after four decades time has begun to come to say farewell to the hauled ICR stock in the Netherlands with the approval of Alstom-build ICNG EMUs in January 2023. A first batch of 17 ICR coaches gets hauled by Strukton 1740 on 6 January 2023, seen here passing through Arnhem. The ICR stock will be retained in reserve, but in 2025 ICNG is projected to have taken over all ICR tasks.

OOC, ex-Strukton 2284 304 (303004) stands at Oss on 10 August 2026 to pick up a cereals train. Strukton used to have four KHD-1200 Diesels for shunting operations and engineering trains. After the influx of nez-cassé electrics and the loss of some shunting francises Strukton discarded their KHD-1200s (that were second-hand bought from HGK); two of which are now in service with OOC for shunting trains in Oss. The 2284 304 still wears the Strukton colours, albeit with the stickers replaced by the blue OOC markings.
