C10845 looks like some sort of futuristic weapon / torture device!

 

Some interesting & unusual items there.

Another quick look at Zug today.

 

Zug lies between Zurich and Luzern, trains from Zurich to the Gotthard also pass through the station.

C10836

 

That must be unusual

An 800mm vehicle on 1000mm accomodation bogies (I assume it's on the BOB side of the station.)

No doubt if it was the UK it would be on a low loader and carried by road!

 

(WAB being part of the BOB grouping. Jungfraubahnen AG)

It is indeed on the BOB side of the station.

 

It was there as part of the 1988 Brunig 100/BLS 75 event.

Mainly Immensee today, north of Arth Goldau at the junction of the lines to Rotkreuz and Luzern.

 

Also one of an old Saentis Bahn (Appenzellerbahn) coach at Herisau.

C11236: it's been many a year since the Hook of Holland last saw in international train. And it'll never happen again, as from last June, the railway is no longer a railway. The section from Schiedam now belongs to the RET, the local municipal public transport company, who will run metro's on the line. Even after the Randstadrail example debacle (2006/7) and with plenty of prep work done ahead of time, they still manage to have the schedule slip, so the conversion of the line, planned for an August/September opening, is now postponed to at least November, maybe even next year :rolleyes:

 

If you do hear more on slippage perhaps I could ask you to post an update? - I won't be the only one contemplating Eurospoor in November, and some of what we might plan to add to the trip will depend on a rapid connection from the ferry to NS.

 

Thanks,

 

Jon

Going back to Arth-Goldau, is there a station bench there with DaveF's bum-print on it?

 

Oh, and if anyone wants an OV chip card with about €15 still on it, PM me. I forgot to get my refund last time I went. 

15 euros is enough to use buses and metros, but you need to top it up to a bigger balance before you can use a train with it.

There probably is, I stayed in a hotel there for just over three weeks in 1988 and used the station everyday as well as spending time there every evening.

Now, one more thing you need to know when travelling by public transport in NL: you need an OVC. It's a chip-card similar to the London Oyster card and is valid for all public transport in the country. The card itself costs 7,50 euro's and then it needs loading up in a machine with enough to cover your journey. For foreign visitors who occasionally come over, not worth the trouble/effort/expense IMO. Again, if the need arises later on, drop me a PM.

 

 

 

 

I believe there is a 'Disposable Chip Card' ("Eenmalige Chipkaart") which can be bought from station vending machines in the same way that you would buy an ordinary ticket, aimed at people (such as foreign visitors) who use Dutch public transport infrequently; these are intended for simple single or return journeys and cannot be topped up with credit.  I understand the 7,50 Euro purchase fee doesn't apply to these.

A lot of interesting rolling stock in the Balsthal pictures!

 

 

The OeBB seemed to delight in collecting old stock from other railways and then using it in everyday service.

 

I'm not sure what it runs now.

It seems to style itself as both a Modern and an Historic train operator with 4 steam locos including an ex SBB Mallett as well as some electric stuff such as a DE6/6 Croc.
