SSN (Stoom Stichting Nederland) based in Rotterdam will organise a steamtrip from Rotterdam to Bochum-Dalhausen and back on Saterday 14th september 2013.
SSN are still busy organising and no bookings can be made as yet.
I will definately go on this trip as i did two years ago.
It is likely that SSN will use the ex DB Br01 1075 steamer as leading pulling power for such a long daytrip.
Also,they will probably bring ex DB 65 018 to Bochum for local back and forth short trips for the public.
Bochum-Dalhausen still shows as a steamdepot of the good old days,complete with turning table,watertower,and half round locsheds.
There is a nice collection of various ex DB steamers of various kind.
German hospitality,beer,and local food will add to a fantastic day!

In case you want to join: Rotterdam has plenty hotel accomodation pretty close to Rotterdam Central Station.
Departure time is 07.00 hrs in the morning,return to Rotterdam will be late at night,probably around 23.00 hrs.
Taking a shower after the trip is recommended,i usually return black as coal!

Just saw that live steamers 01 1066 and 03 1010 will also be there!

If you have questions please let me know.

A proud member of SSN,
Paul.
