This stamp of 0,44 euros shows the so-called Moerputten bridge. Moerputten is an area of natural beauty between 's-Hertogenbosch and Waalwijk. It consists of marshland (Dutch "moer", English "moor"), which made it difficult to create a railway line through it. Still the "halvezolenlijn", as it is called, was built as a line for the transportation of goods between 1886 and 1890. In 1950 the passenger service stopped to exist and in 1972 it was closed down all together. Moerputten bridge is still there and may become part of a walkway in the future. De halvezolenlijn (English: half soles line) was called thus, because it connected several places with a florishing shoe industry. It ran from Lage Zwaluwe to 's-Hertogenbosch. The area it ran through was also called "Langstraat", as the villages and small towns originated as a long row of buildings alongside only a few streets.

Train at Hanzelijn: The Hanzelijn is a fifty kilometer long railway between the Dutch towns of Lelystad and Zwolle. The railway runs through the provinces of Flevoland, Gelderland and Overijssel and has two newly built stations between the stations Lelystad Centrum and Zwolle, namely Dronten and Kampen Zuid. The name of the line is taken from the Hanseatic League, the medieval federation of trading cities of which Zwolle and Kampen were part. The Hanzelijn, completed in 2012, can be regarded as an extension of the Flevolijn, completed in 1988, which runs from Weesp station via Almere to Lelystad. The operation of both lines forms a single entity and is in the hands of the NS. The owner and manager of the stations and the railway is ProRail.

Within NS, the Service, Maintenance and Modernization departments are responsible for the maintenance of the trains. Previously this was NedTrain. They took care of technical maintenance and quick service and of cleaning and short- and long-term overhaul. NS Maintenance & Service is the Dutch maintenance company for railway equipment. The company was created after the division of the Dutch Railways, when the Equipment & Workshops department within the NS Group was privatized as NS Equipment. In 1999 the name was changed to NedTrain. In 2017, the management of NS and NedTrain decided to add NedTrain again under the NS. The stamps shown here show trains at the location Zwolle.
