On 4 January 2025 the Sun starts setting above Lage zwaluwe when RFO 6702 was seen there. This loco used to be an NMBS/SNCB HLD Class 62/63 and became ACTS 6702 when sold to that now defunct Dutch private railway operator. LOCON Benelux had this loco in an orange-white outfirt, but collapsed on her turn. RFO took some contracts and half of the loco fleet from LOCON and decided to apply her own two-tone grey colour scheme on this loco albeit with the darker grey outlined in NMBS 1970s style.

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.

Side view on 2530 at Nijmegen on 15 December 2024. The last of a 130-strong Class of Alsthom-build Diesel locomotives, 2530 was equipped with a raised cab (and lower bonnets) to improve the driver's  view. Due to the strong emphasis on electrification of the Dutch railways (that commenced from 1934 on and was only interrupted by WW-2) the 2530 remained a one-off. After service with the Netherlands State Railways NS she was sold to VSM that returned this loco into her pruple/lila colours, earning her the nickname Bisshop (at requests from the three Dutch southern provinces Gelderland, Noord-Brabant and Limburg, these being staunchly Roman Catholic in the 1950s and 1960s).
