Stoomtrein Gouda-Alphen Holland 1934 (english below) NL – Zondag 7 oktober 1934 – Opening spoorlijn Gouda-Waddinxveen-Boskoop-Alphen in Holland met feestelijke aankomst van de stoomtrein op station Boskoop. NB. Film toont beelden van langs de spoorlijn en toont achtereenvolgens herkenbaar bij naam de stations van resp. Waddinxveen en Boskoop. Echter het eerste shot van een ‘stations gebouw’ in deze film herken ik als ook beeld van station Boskoop, terwijl suggestie is dat dit Gouda zou zijn — en de mensenmassa langs de lijn in het derde shot zal ook wel in Gouda zijn. Bewerking van Polygoontoon bioscoopjournaal week 41, 1934 | Open Beelden | Beeld & Geluid .
EN – Sunday 7 October 1934 – Opening of the Gouda-Waddinxveen-Boskoop-Alphen railway line in Holland with festive arrival of the steam train at Boskoop station. NB. Film shows images from along the railway line and successively shows the stations of respectively recognizable by name Waddinxveen and Boskoop. However, I recognize the first shot of a ‘station building’ in this film as also an image of Boskoop station, while the suggestion is that this would be Gouda – and the crowd of people along the line in the 3rd shot will probably also be in Gouda.
