NS railway museum .. it's just like visiting your cousins.. it's so similar

In the Netherlands we consider stations not part of the national network as being "closed". Stations on preserved lines are part of a museum operation and have a different legal position, but it is all a matter of terminology, which appears to differ between our countries.

Entering the Maliebaan station building without a ticket and without being challenged ... it must have been a VERY quiet day, it certainly is not normal practice.
