Except for photo #3 I have seen all the other types of equipment.  #3 is a first time.  Unusual.

Loco #1210 in photo #1 is from a class of locos designed by Baldwin but built by Werkspoor in the Netherlands, with some parts coming from the US as part of the Marshall Plan after WW2.

On one hand, it's cool to see some of the older NS equipment, like 1210 in the first shot.  That's a class I've never seen, although a quick search says a few survive in the hands of non-NS operators.  On the other hand, it's surprising how little has changed in other ways - #3 could pretty much be yesterday..  Very cool stuff - thanks for posting this and the recent tram shots.
