After the first tank locomotives 771-772 (NS 5700) with superheater, the HSM ordered other locomotives with a superheater. Like the 771–772, these were built by Werkspoor in 1907. The HSM gave them numbers 421–425. In a way, these locomotives can be regarded as a further development of the 350-408 (NS 1600) with a superheater. After good experiences, including a coal saving of 15 to 17%, another order was places for a further 34 locomotives which were between 1908 and 1913.[2]
When the locomotives and rolling stock fleets of the HSM and the Maatschappij tot Exploitatie van Staatsspoorwegen was merged in 1921, the locomotives of this series were given the NS numbers 1901–1940. During the Second World War, a number of locomotives were taken eastward, No's 1908, 1934, 1935 and 1937 never returned and were reported missing. The rest were disposed of between 1946 and 1948. No locomotive has been preserved.
De Arend was one of the two first steam locomotives in the Netherlands. It was a 2-2-2 Patentee type built in England by R. B. Longridge and Company of Bedlington, Northumberland to run on the then standard Dutch track gauge of 1,945 mm. On 20 September 1839, together with the Snelheid, it hauled the first train of the Hollandsche IJzeren Spoorweg-Maatschappij between Amsterdam and Haarlem. It was withdrawn in 1857.
The NS 1600 was a series of steam engines of the Dutch national railways, Nederlandse Spoorwegen (NS), and its predecessors Maatschappij tot Exploitatie van Staatsspoorwegen (SS), Hollandsche IJzeren Spoorweg-Maatschappij (HSM) and Nederlandsche Rhijnspoorweg-Maatschappij (NRS).
The NS 5300 class were the first of this class in The Netherlands, in fact the NRS employed the first passenger service tender locomotives with this type. The Westinghouse brake system was a first for the NRS; the additional hand brake was common. To obtain a stable ride at high speeds, inside cylinders were employed. The firebox was situated between the coupled axles. The front and rear axles were of the Webb type, already employed by the London North Western Railway. The radial axle boxes were produced with very fine tolerances. Rubber bumpers were employed to move the axle back into position.
The HSM 190 - 193 were a class of four 1'B steam locomotives build by Borsig for the Hollandsche Spoorweg Maatschappij in 1888. The locomotives were named as was typical for the HSM. These were of the same type as locomotives of the series 184-189 with the exception that these locomotives were compounds. Compounding was introduced in an effort to improve efficiency.
The Snelheid was the name of the first locomotive in the Netherlands, which, together with the Arend, pulled the first train between Amsterdam and Haarlem.
