Ex-DB 110 278 enjoys the Sun at venlo on 2 December 2023.

T679 1600 stands on 12 Juni 2022 in the railway museum of Luzna u Rakovnika.

On 2 December 2023 SSN organised an extra Kerst-Express (X-Mas Xpress) from Rotterdam to Aachen because the first (schedukled for 16 December) sold out within a week.
