Stoomtrein Goes-Borsele: railway heritage on site and en route

The Stoomtrein Goes-Borsele combines heritage train rides with a museum site in Goes. You can look at the railway as a means of transport, but also as a whole made up of maintenance, freight transport and signalling.

More than a train ride

On the site you will find, among other things, the Tractiegebouw and displays on post-war reconstruction trains and railway signalling. Freight wagons, a weighbridge and a steam crane show work other than just pulling a train.

Choosing a ride

The heritage rides run according to a calendar with different colours and programmes. Steam and diesel rides are not simply interchangeable. See what applies to your date and how much time is left over for the site in Goes.

White days are closed

There is no regular weekly timetable. On white calendar days there are no public rides and the site is closed. Special ride days may also have limited access. The office hours are therefore not usable opening times for a spontaneous museum visit.

Before you go

Check the colour calendar and the corresponding site hours; do not come on the basis of the office opening hours.
