Railway Stations Opened In 1951
Rail transport (also known as train transport) is a means of transport that transfers passengers and goods on wheeled vehicles running on rails, which are incorporated in tracks. In contrast to road transport, where the vehicles run on a prepared flat surface, rail vehicles (rolling stock) are directionally guided by the tracks on which they run. Tracks usually consist of steel rails, installed on sleepers (ties) set in ballast, on which the rolling stock, usually fitted with metal wheels, moves. Other variations are also possible, such as "slab track", in which the rails are fastened to a concrete foundation resting on a prepared subsurface. Rolling stock in a rail transport system generally encounters lower frictional resistance than rubber-tyred road vehicles, so passenger and freight cars (carriages and wagons) can be coupled into longer trains. The operation is carried out by a railway company, providing transport between train stations or freight customer facili ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Scherpenzeel, Gelderland
Scherpenzeel () is a municipality and a town in the Dutch province of Gelderland. As of , it has a population of , with approximately 6,000 adults. The community of Scherpenzeel also contains a part of the hamlet of Moorst. ''Dutch topographic map of the municipality of Scherpenzeel, June 2015'' History Founding Centuries ago, what is now the Netherlands was still a collection of small states, ruled by bishops, earls, dukes, and lords. These rulers were constantly at war over territory, causing fortifications and defenses to be built in border areas. This was the case in the Veluwe hills, which lay along the border of what is now Utrecht and Gelderland, where many castles and fortresses were constructed as safe havens. Hence, the name "Scherpenzeel", formerly known as "Scarpenzele", allows us to infer that there was a settlement built around a house ("''zele''") with sharpened poles ("''scarpen''"), the prototype of an old castle. The possession of Scherpenzeel was at vario ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
