Baasrode-Noord, Belgium, July 3rd 2016

Series 62 mainline diesel 6219 of the railway infrastructure company Infrabel, a subsidiary company of the Belgian Railways, is seen at the Scheldeland in Stoom railway heritage happening, held by the Stoomtrein Dendermonde-Puurs heritage railway.

6219 - which was built in 1962 and entered service as '212.119' with the Belgian Railways on December 18th 1962, was recently immaculately restored to its '1970' livery by maintenance crew of the Merelbeke depot during their spare time. However, last week, a week before its planned appearance at the festival, she was subjected to a graffiti attack at the Gent Zeehaven yard. Fortunately, the crews managed to restore her once again to her proper livery, in time for her attendance at the festival.
