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. Muscle Power speeder Hollander at the Spoorwegmuseum / Railway Museum in Utecht Maliebaan former Station. July 15th, 2022. The Hollander is a special three-wheeled vehicle that is propelled by two persons sitting facing each other by jointly moving a lever forwards and backwards, using both hand and foot power. The gentlemen sit on wooden chairs above the right rail. The power transmission goes from the lever via a connecting rod and gears with a large displacement to the rear wheel. On the left (considering the direction of travel) there is only a small wheel at the front. This also determines the direction of travel: driving in the other direction will irrevocably lead to derailment. The device is entirely made of wood, with the exception of the gears and the wheel tires. Photo by Guido Allieri (guido@allieri.com)
