The Railway Museum (Spoorwegmuseum) in Utrecht, Netherlands

The Utrecht Maliebaan station was originally opened in 1874, connecting Hilversum to Lunetten, which is still in use today. Initially, Lunetten was only a transfer station with no pedestrian entrance or exit, resulting in low passenger numbers. The route became even less popular with the introduction of nearby stations connecting larger stations. By 1939, Utrecht Maliebaan had closed, but it was reopened during World War II to deport Jews to the Westerbork camp. In 1954, the station reopened as the Spoorwegmuseum, featuring two buildings with exhibits, a theater, and a train simulator. In 2015, a monument was added to commemorate the Utrecht Jewish community that did not survive the war. Since 2005, passengers can take a local train from Utrecht's central station to the museum, using the same ticket system as other trains. On special occasions, an older passenger train may be used on this route. The tracks south of Utrecht Maliebaan were removed in 2012, and the station only connects to Utrecht Centraal and Utrecht Overvecht, requiring a transfer for other destinations.
