History

On 2. November 1966 derailed ElD4 521 as part of train No 1018 near Halfweg. The train had sped over a switch and derailed. This led to damages in all cars. After the derailment the leading unit Bk1 came to a standstill beside the track, the BD carriage stood complete beside the track, while the AB- and the other motor unit Bk2 landed on their sides in a ditch. On 7 November 1966 the train arrived for repairs at Revisiebedrijf Haarlem. It was returned to service on 24 July 1967. The opportunity was used to undertake also a small revision (H2).[1][2]
