The Railway Museum (Dutch: Het Spoorwegmuseum) in Utrecht is the Dutch National Railway Museum.
It was established in 1927 and since 1954 has been housed in the former Maliebaan station. The museum currently owns a large and varied collection of rolling stock.

DIesel-Electric Multiple Unit (DMU) NS 114 of the Type DE3, plan U serie 111-152 built in 1960 by Werkspoor NV, Amsterdam/Utrecht at the Het Spoorwegmuseum / Railway Museum in Utecht Maliebaan former Station. July 15th, 2022.
From 1960, according to investment plan U, a series of 42 diesel-electric trainsets 111 - 152 were put into service to replace the older diesel threes from 1934. They were equipped with a Werkspoor diesel engine type RUHB 1616.
The color was originally tomato red. The head shape with a nose and high cabin was derived from that of Materieel '54.
Depending on the transport offer, up to three DE3 trainsets could be combined with the automatic Scharfenberg couplers.
The appearance of the DE3 served as an example for the later Materieel '64 and the motor mail carriages series 3001 - 3035.
The diesel trains were intended for service on the non-electrified main lines, such as Geldermalsen - Dordrecht, Zwolle - Emmen, Nijmegen - Venlo - Roermond and other lines.
The exterior sliding doors were replaced by swinging swing doors from 1971 and the color was changed to yellow in accordance with the new house style.

In 1980, the replacement by SACM MGO diesel engines, 4-stroke diesel engines with high pressure filling and charge air cooling, began.
The trainsets are equipped with ATB.
Train set 114 was lent to Syntus in the period 31-5-1999 to 1-7-2002 and then served with NS until 26-2-2003. It came to the Railway Museum in 2003.
The numbers 115, 121 and 151 ended up with other museum train organizations.
In 2009, train set 114 was made operational again, after which the corporate identity yellow was replaced by the original red color in 2010.
