NS setam loco 3737 was the very last steam loco to handle a scheduled steam train with the Netherlands State railways on 7 January 1958. One day later, the steam era by NS ended for good, making the Netherlands the first country in Europe to abolish revenue earning steam traction. 3737 has been preserved and was long in running condition, like om 4 September 2000 at Loenen, where it paid a visit to the Veluwsche Stoomtrein Maatschappij and took a photo freight. Sadly, 3737 is no longer allowed to drive and rests at the Dutch railway Museum at Utrecht Maliebaan.
