Stoomtrein Katwijk Leiden

Stop by! Smell, look and enjoy the atmosphere of the past, when the steam train still provided transportation of people and products in the Netherlands. At the Steam Train Katwijk Leiden you can see and experience it all!

100-year-old steam locomotive

As soon as you step into the station, it seems as if time has stood still. Along the platform an almost 100-year-old steam locomotive with its antique wooden carriages is already waiting for you. The conductor blows his whistle, the stoker throws a few more coals on the fire, and when the driver pulls the regulator, the locomotive sets off puffing and hissing.

Indoor and outdoor

There is much to see and do! You enter a real station building where you buy an old-fashioned train ticket. The platform takes you to the outdoor museum where there are even more historic buildings. See the antique carriages, steam and diesel locomotives there.
