On 20 september 2014 the line Amsterdam-Haarlem existed 175 years. It was also the first railwayline in the Netherlands, so it was also 175 years railways in the Netherlands. Therefore, the whole day 4 classic trains made turns between and Amsterdam Centraal and Haarlem. One of them was this EMU type Plan U, dating from 1962. I am standing here at the original bed of the line Amsterdam-Haarlem from 1839, the majority of the line still lies on that bed, but at this particular spot it was abandoned in 1985.
