Veluwsche Stoomtrein Maatschappij VSM
Die Bildgalerie dokumentiert verschiedene Lokomotiven und Züge der Veluwsche Stoomtrein Maatschappij (VSM) in den Niederlanden, aufgenommen an den Standorten Beekbergen, Loenen, Dieren und Amsterdam Centraal zwischen 2000 und 2018. Zu sehen sind historische Dampflokomotiven wie VSM 52 3879, 44 1593, 44 1085 und 50 0073, häufig im Einsatz mit Fotozügen oder während Veranstaltungen wie dem VSM Festival 'Terug naar Toen'. Mehrfach abgebildet ist die ehemalige NS 636, sowohl in Beekbergen als auch in Loenen. Weitere Motive umfassen Diesellokomotiven wie ex-NS 2412, 2530, 2459 und 2233, sowie Gastfahrzeuge wie SHM 7742 'BELLO', SGB-3 'BISON' und ZLSM 1220. Gezeigt werden auch Rangierloks, darunter der Ex-SBB Tm 565 und der Oersik 116. Die Fotos erfassen betriebliche Situationen wie Rangierfahrten, Lokomotiven auf der Drehscheibe, Zugzusammenstellungen mit ehemaligen österreichischen Wagen und Wetterwechsel während der Veranstaltungen. Einzelne Aufnahmen zeigen Besonderheiten wie eine Lokomotiven-Maskerade oder den Transfer von VSM-Wagen am Bahnhof Amsterdam Centraal. EU label: AI-generated content

Ex-DB 23 076 stands at Loenen on 5 September 2026 during the yearly held train bonanza Terug naar Toen (Back to Yonder)-this photo was shot from 'my' steam train from Beekbergen. Three examples of Class 023 have been saved in the Netherlands and are in fully operational condition. Thanks to their maximum speed of 110 km/h they can be used on main line running specials, albeit being rostered in as quasi freights, since passenger trains are much faster, where freights mostly run with speeds up to 120 km/h.

The decoration on the kettle's dooor of VSM 44 1593 is a wink to the fact, that in the 100th year of ex-DRG Class 44 only one 44 in Western Europe is inoperational condition and that that one is outside Germany! VSM 44 1593 readies herself with one of the many steam shuttle trains to/from Loenen at Beekbergen on 5 September2026 during the Terug naar Toen steam train bonanza.

TKp23 'Slask' stands at Beekbergen on 5 September 2026 during the Terug-naar-Toen festivities. After several attempts by VSM to sell the loco, they decided to give her an at least cosmetical restoration.

VSM 2412 stands in front of the brand new loco shed at Loenen on 5 September 2025 during the Terug-naar-Toen train bonanza. The loco shed was completed just a month before the TnT opened. The ex-NS 2412 and het Plan D coach show the brief spell of turquise hauled passenger Diesel trains with NS from 1951-1954. In 1954 Diesel locos of the series 2200 and 2400 were repainted brown and hauled stock turned into Prussian blue -reputedly because dirt was less visible on darker colours.

Ex-NS, now VSM 2233 banks one of the each 45 minutes operating shuttle trains between Beekbergen and Loenen out of Loenen during the annual Terug-naar-Toen train bonanza. Diesel passenger trains in the netherlands have almostalways been operated by DMUs; Diesel loco haulage being very rare; onlyin the proximity of Winterswijk and Zevenaar a few peak hour trains were loco hauled. The passenger stock on this train is the hauled versionof Mat'24 Blokkendoos and VSM each year does a very fine job inrecreating the few Diesel loco hauled trains fromthe past -in combination with German Einheitsdampfloks or GDR ReKos.

It is Saturday 5 September 2026 and the first saturday of September and that means the VSM train bonanza Terug naar Toen (Back to Yonder) that sees every hour a steam train between the VSM's head quartes Beekbergen and Apeldoorn (connecting to the national railways network); five steam trains to Dieren (connecting with the national railways network) and every 45 minutes a steam train to and from Loenen. At Loenen, a photo freight to Eerbeek awaits departure time and is hauled by 23 071 and a Class 64. A nice touch, since in DB and DR days, Classes 23 and 23.10 were fully assigned to passenger operations.

From 'my' train at Loenen ex-NS 2412 with Plan-D coach was photographed. When NS ordered Class 2400 in 1951, the firstbatch of the Class, 2401-2413 was delivered inturqouise livery to match with the coaches that had a slightly brighter turqouise (the difference is visible inthis picture). Before 1956 NS had second thoughts about turqouise, that can become dirty rather quickly, and decided to use Berlin or Prussian blue for hauled passenger stock. All Diesel locomotives of Classes 2200 and 2400 turned dark brown for freight service untill the 1970s,that saw the rise of dark grey and yellow as the new corporate identity. In 1990 Class 2400 went out and some were sold to SNCF for construction work on high speed lines, 2412 amonst them. After that, she had a brief spell with VFLI that painted the loco bright grey with yellow fronts -the fourth livery this loco wore. In 2012 VSM bought the loco and brought backhte days of that brief turqouis spell with Netherlands State railways.

Ex-NS 2412 stands at the VSM in Beekbergen on 6 September 2015. When NS ordered 129 locos of this Class with Alstom, the Dutch experimented with colour schemes, resulting in this turqois for 2401-2422 before the brown of the 1960s waqs introduced to the whole Class. Since VSM already had a brown 2400, they decided to buy a second loco from a French operator and painted her in this colour scheme.

The first batch of thirteen Diesel lcomotives Class 2400 were delivered in turqouis for possible deployment on passenger trains. The colour however, became dirty very fast and with the influx of DMUs, plans to deploy Class 2400 on passenger trains were dropped immeditely. One of these turqouis locos, NS 2412 , has been preserved by the VSM and is sen here on 4 September 2022 at their depot in Beekbergen.
