VT 18.16.10 stands on 18 September 2026 at Kolín in preparation for her part in the annually (and probably last time held) train bonanza at Benesov u Prahy, organised by Steam Story Agency. Having arrived from Kutna Hora and destined for Praha hl.n., this EMU sadly suffered a 30 minutes delay dueto siome technical hitch-ups, that not only triggered the delay, but also lead to the cancelling of a specialride the next day.

A Giraffe on the tracks! On 4 October 2026 HSL 1508 -since 2025  carrying this interesting Giraffe design- made a rare appearance on the Betuweroute freight artery and is seen here at Valburg. Since HSL 1508 normally  shunts in the Rotterdam port area, such outings are quite a rarity.
