NS Sprinter #2635 - Nederlandse Spoorwegen
Title:  NS Sprinter #2635 - Nederlandse Spoorwegen
Description:  This is an "Sprinter" Lighttrain (SLT) operated by Nederlandse Spoorwegen (NS - Dutch Rwy) heading into the Amsterdam Central Station. The Sprinter was built first by Bombardier (2400 series) and by Siemens (2600 series). Unfortunately, since the Dutch Rwys uses "NS" as their designation, listing Dutch trains in RRPA is not possible since Norfolk Southern uses the same designation.
