175 jaar Utrecht Spoorstad - Wandelen en fietsen langs spoorwegerfgoed

On 6 December 1843 the Nederlandsche Rhijn Spoorwegmaatschappij festively opened the Amsterdam-Utrecht railway line. In the years that followed, Utrecht grew into the most important railway junction in the Netherlands.
Not only stations were built in the city, but also workshops, signal boxes, viaducts, bridges and staff housing. The largest railway companies built their head offices here.
Today, the recently renovated Utrecht Centraal is still the centre of our national railway system and the station has the most train passengers in our country.

From the modern heart, a walking and cycling route has been set out along the railway heritage in the city of Utrecht. Be surprised by the new Utrecht Central Station and follow the track along more than 80 large and small monuments that recall Utrecht's 175-year railway history.

This book was published on the occasion of the exhibition in Het Utrechts Archief "Utrecht spoorstad" 14/12/2018 - 6/07/2019.

25 Jaar regionale spoorlijnen in beeld

En 1998, Oostnet a repris le service ferroviaire entre Almelo et Mariënberg, marquant la première ligne régionale exploitée par un autre opérateur que la NS. Depuis, plusieurs nouveaux opérateurs ont été introduits sur de nombreuses lignes et sont désormais indispensables au transport public néerlandais.

Cela représente un chapitre important de l'histoire du transport ferroviaire. Le livre propose un aperçu des développements des lignes régionales aux Pays-Bas au cours des 25 dernières années. Avec de nombreuses illustrations et photos, il offre une vue textuelle et visuelle des changements entre 1998 et 2023.

Amsterdam - Utrecht: Van Rhijnspoor tot Randstadspoor

Almost everyone knows that the first train in the Netherlands ran between Amsterdam and Haarlem (1839), but on paper the so-called Rhijnspoorweg between Amsterdam and Cologne was the first railway line in the Netherlands. Due to lack of finances, the first stage of the Rhijnspoorweg between Amsterdam and Utrecht was not opened until December 1843.
Over the years, the line has been rebuilt and relocated many times, with the major expansions being the major railway works in Amsterdam and Utrecht in the 1930s, the symbiosis with the Amsterdam metro and the four-track system around the year 2000.

Today, this railway line is one of the busiest routes in the Netherlands. Michiel ten Broek and Victor Lansink take you on a journey through time along this fascinating railway line due to the many changes, using many historical and atmospheric illustrations.

Also featured are high-profile stations such as Amsterdam Amstel, Duivendrecht, Amsterdam Bijlmer Arena and Utrecht Centraal, as well as vanished stations such as Amsterdam Weesperpoort and Nieuwersluis.
