About the location/station
"As soon as you step into our station, it seems as if time has stood still. An almost 100-year-old steam locomotive with its old wooden carriages is already waiting for you along the platform. The conductor blows his whistle, the stoker throws a few more coals on the fire, and when the engineer pulls the regulator, the locomotive hisses and puffs into motion. It's not hard. It is a real slow train that many grandfathers and grandmothers still know from their youth. You can still experience that atmosphere at the Katwijk Leiden steam train."
