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.
Electric Loco Co'Co' NS 1501 built in 1954 by Metroolitan Vickers, Manchester (UK), preserved indoor at the Het Spoorwegmuseum / Railway Museum in Utecht Maliebaan former Station. July 15th, 2022.
Locomotive 1501 was transferred to Werkgroep 1501, a working group set up by a number of Rotterdam and The Hague train drivers after being taken out of service. At the end of the 1990s, the Classical Locomotives Foundation (KLOK) was established to offer non-NS members the opportunity to support the preservation of the locomotive.
After various revisions, the locomotive has been running for quite some time and has made many trips for more than 15 years. The locomotive was taken out of service at the end of 2007, partly due to the changes on the Dutch track. Although it remained a fervent wish to overhaul the locomotive, this was not successful until 2021. However, the locomotive was given a facelift in 2020 before being exhibited in the Railway Museum. On June 1, 2021, ownership of the locomotive was transferred to the Railway Museum.
