The Dutch Railways 150th anniversary in 1989

The event for Dutch train enthusiasts in 1989 was of course the celebration of 150 years of railways in the Netherlands. Many activities were organized throughout the year, but the highlight was a large event in the summer in Utrecht. It was perhaps the largest train event ever organized in the Netherlands.

In this film, re-released especially for 24Trains.tv, we take you back to the year 1989 with various footage from Utrecht, Amsterdam and Abcoude.
