Graffen,

Beautiful pics. This will definitely be on my list if I ever make it back to the Netherlands. I very much enjoyed visiting the last time, some 4 decades ago (1972?).

Madurodam (at den Haag) is also another great place for railfans. I'll bet it's changed some, at least it looks so in pics: http://www.madurodam.nl/en/

Hi all!

I spend my summers in the Netherlands, and the narrow gauge museum in Katwijk was a great experience.

Me and the wife was there a week ago, and it was more to see there than we had expected!

The price for entrance including two rides was $10/person. Very reasonable!

Some pics from the museum:

I can't strongly enough recommend this museum!

They have a big narrow gauge modeling meet this September as well!
