Hippel Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Hope someone can help me here. The attached photo was taken in February 1993 in the Maritime Museum in Rotterdam. I didn't take a lot of notice of it at the time, but now wish I had. It wasn't there last year. I believe it could be an NS500 because the NS600 has a wider buffer beam. I've trawled the internet and found 4 NS500s preserved in Holland. NS521 at SGB Goes, NS532 at VSM Beekbergen and NS508 and NS512 at NS Utrecht. I don't think it's 521 as on 521 there are some 'sticky-out bits' alongside the radiator which are lower on my photo. NS508 doesn't have them and the buffers look different. This means it might be 532 or 512. Are there any knowledgeable Dutch enthusiasts out there that can help? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-UnitMad Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Look underneath it. Does it say "ROCO"..?? Sorry, couldn't resist. I had a Roco "Dutch 08" years ago and it was a superb runner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
