Op het ander bord op deze restanten vind u wat info over het leven hier.
De woningen waren volledig afgelegen van alles er was onder andere geen nuts voorzieningen geen gas water of licht en dus ook geen weg om bij de woning te kunnen komen, water halde men uit een waterput hierin werd het regenwater wat van de woning kwam opgevangen, in zeer droge tijden werd er water aangevoerd via de locomotief en was de put weer een beetje op peil, dat de woning alleen per voet of per trein te bereiken was had helaas ook een zwart randje een doodzieke zoon moest nar het ziekenhuis hiervoor werd het treinverkeer stilgelegd en kwam er een lorrie ( (visit link) de zoon werd in dekens op en stoel gezet en door 2 man richting vinkeveen geduwd Adriaan was echter zo ernstig ziek dat hij even later in het ziekenhuis is overleden

-----------------

You are standing here by the remains of the guardhouse 49 A and B the building was designed by the famous architect Jan Ernst van der Pek ( 1865 1919 ) the houses stood there until about 1965 on the signs you can see what the building looked like back then.

On the other board on these remains you will find some info about life here.
The houses were completely remote from everything, among other things there were no utilities, no gas, water or electricity and thus no road to reach the house. Water was taken from a well in which the rainwater from the house was collected. In very dry times, water was brought in via the locomotive and the well was filled up a little. Unfortunately, the fact that the house could only be reached on foot or by train also had a black edge: a son who was gravely ill had to be taken to hospital, so the train traffic was shut down and a trolley ( (visit link) spiba.nl/product/lorrie-geremd/) the son was put in blankets on a chair and pushed by 2 men towards vinkeveen Adriaan was so seriously ill, however, that he died a short time later in hospital
