2361 was withdrawn on 24/04/2003 after an accident at Marbehan on 13/03/2002. She was stored at Salzinnes and probably has been cut up. I will try and see on Saturday. She cannot have been at Dendermonde on 28th August this year.

What is the technical word in Dutch for the Bankers [rear push] locomotives?

News of the locomotives departure is here on a UK web site called WNXX http://www.wnxx.com/news/index.htm This web site is probably the UK's best for information about locomotives, where they are, and changes in status. I have yet to find anything for Belgium like this. The part of the WNXX site whi...

The Antwerpen Centraal - Noorderkempen shuttle trains are know as the Noordercarparks to the British Enthusiasts, as they run to a car park! Iain I thought you called these "parkway stations" over there ? eg. Bristol Parkway so it should be Brecht Parkway ? The stations that are out of to...

Ze zouden beter de Desiro's zo snel mogelijk inzetten op de Brecht shuttle, is veel vlotter in gebruik, en er komen dan 4 stuurrijtuigen M6 vrij en 2x T13. I think a dual voltage Desiro would be better on these trains. Have two or three allocated to the trains which would be cheaper to run and a be...

Those trai...

Iain, it is better that you don't use Google Translate anymore. It is really funny to read in dutch, but it is easier for us to read in English :lol: Well this is a Dutch language Forum and it is good manners to at least make the effort. It is also about respect, respect for your language and respe...
