The stamps show the equipment with which was run in former years. From 1863 till 1953 the steam locomotive was in service. From 1953 till 1982 the "Blue Angel" (Blauwe Engel) was a familiar guest. After that came the "Shallows Runner" (Wadloper), which ran services throughout the north of The Netherlands. From 1960 Plan U trains, also called "Dog's Head" (Hondekop) were in service. And from now on we'll see more of the "Buffalo" (Buffel). Designers: ? Offset paper: ? Sheets of 2 x 5 stamps with synthetic gum. Perforation: ? No watermark Value: 50 cents Circulation: ?

Due to serious health problems, the museum is closed as of January 1, 2014, except once a year on Heritage Day. Owner Riekje passed away on February 6, 2014.

The trainsets have an entry at platform height. It connects well to the platform thanks to an extending step, so that wheelchair users can travel independently. The floor is higher above the bogies; there is a step. Some trains have a closed system toilet that is wheelchair accessible; others have no toilet. Social safety is increased with cameras and emergency buttons. The Spurt has an unusual layout. It consists of a two-axle railcar, also called Powerpack, with carriages on either side.
