Utrecht Spoorwegmuseum 2016 09 02

-Translation see down- Heute besuchen wir das Utrechter Spoorwegmuseum, wo ich zwei Mal zur Modellbahn Ausstellung Ontraxx war. Der Kommentar ist auf dem Film. Eine nette Sehenswürdigkeit ist die Ausstellung der „Feuertest“, der mit einer virtuellen Achterbahnfahrt durch Raum und Zeit endet. Hier habe ich mir einen Film von „albert31948“ ohne Erlaubnis ausgeliehen. Am Ende noch ein kleiner Film über die Tram in Rotterdam und dem Depot der Stoom Stichting Nederland. Today we visit the Utrecht Spoorweg Museum, where each year in march the model railway exhibition Ontraxx is situated. We drive from Utrecht Central by shuttle train directly to the museum station. So we are just after the opening of the museum, it is friendly empty for photographers. The station building of the Maliebaan Station was brought to the original state of the 19th century in 2003. The Royal Waitingroom from DenHaag was integrated here. At the first platform in front of the building you see interesting locomotives, wagons and railcars. Inside you have without the model displays of the Ontraxx good clear views to the exhibited trains. They don`t make the mistakes of other museums, which put everything close together in a shed, without a free view to the exhibist. A separate section shows how it looked around 1800 in the workshops around Stephenson. The “De Arend” is a replica of 1938. In the second floor there is a model railway exhibition Outside there are various vehicles and building. There is also a turntable. A nice exhibition is the "Firetest", which ends with a virtual switchback through space and time. At the end of the film I show some pictures of the trams in Rotterdam and a film over the depot of the Stoom Stichting Nederland.
