Eerde Stop | Gatehouse 12
Only a stretch of track and an information board remain to remind us of the Duits Lijntje stop that once stood here.
Only a stretch of track and an information board remain to remind us of the Duits Lijntje stop that once stood here. Still, trains stopped here daily, starting in 1873. Skilled workers from the area—such as wood craftsmen from Wijbosch, the sawmill in Eerde, and local clog makers—benefited greatly. They could easily transport their goods by rail from point A to point B.
For passengers, there was a platform to board and exit the train. But there’s another story tied to Eerde Stop. In 1917, a stationmaster and switch operator were involved in a smuggling scheme. They were caught, dismissed from their positions, and sentenced to four months in prison.
