Nederlandse Spoorwegen provide the passenger services so there are a number of blue and yellow trains. However, there are a number of private operators moving freight and there are therefore several interesting liveries.Because freight comes from all over Europe the wagons can be from any country making for some colourful freight trains. The buildings are nearly all built from Dutch kits and are made from plastic, resin or laser-cut card. The station at the left hand end is called Zeedijk, because that is the name of the road which crosses the railway at the level crossing. The station does not exist in real life but I thought it would add to the scene and provide a little more interest both visually and to the train movements. The building is particularly interesting as it is ideal for a small country station and was>designed by the same designer who built the larger Culemborg Station which is the next one up the line.At the right hand end of the layout the railway has risen up to cross the River Maas on a large bridge of which you can see the beginnings
