Viewing Album:  Dutch Railways, Venlo and points south
 
By:George C Johnson
Dates:3/19/2007 - 3/21/2007
Album Info:Venlo is located in southeastern Holland near the German border. Since the railway station in Venlo is close to the border, there are many shunting movements as German cargo and passengers switch over to the Dutch railways. Also in this album are a few pictures from Roermond, Heerlen, and Landgraaf.
