2530 Fotos

Side view on 2530 at Nijmegen on 15 December 2024. The last of a 130-strong Class of Alsthom-build Diesel locomotives, 2530 qwas 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).

On 6 September 2015 ex-NS 2530 stands at the VSM depot in Beekbergen. The last of Class 2400/2500 was modified with a raised cab and slightly lowered bonnets to provide the loco driver better view. No further orders were placed by NS however, electric traction having given priority, but in Peru, one operator ordered sixteem of these modified Alsthom standard locos, the normal NS Class 2400 being the standard design.
