Holland-België: 1-2

            Het Haags OV-museum heeft weer een leuke stunt uitgehaald rond het thema '75 jaar PCC'. Naast de Brusselse PCC is korte tijd ook een NMVB-soortgenoot op smalspoor te gast, uit de collectie van het buurtspoorwegmuseum van de ASVI in Thuin. Ze komen alledrie uit dezelfde fabriek en hun productielijnen startten alle rond 1950, op basis van Amerikaanse PCC-patenten.

Kijkend naar dit trio op het remiseterrein kun je eindeloos praten met medegeïnteresseerden over de typische familetrekjes, met alle overeenkomsten en verschillen. De NMVB'er heeft nog dezelfde grote koplamp, zwengelraampjes en kleine standee windows als de Haagse 1000'en voor hun grote revisie van rond 1970. De Brusselaars hebben altijd deurbladen met drie raampjes gehouden, zoals de HTM-1000'en tot begin jaren '60 hadden. De typisch Amerikaanse armaturen voor de omtrekverlichting hebben daarentegen in België nooit ingang gevonden. En zo meer, en zo door

A one-time line-up of two Belgian and one Dutch PCC car on the premises of The Hague public transport museum, at the occasion of the 75-year PCC anniversary in The Hague. The leftmost car is from Brussels, the rightmost one, on a piece of narrow-gauge track, from ASVI vicinal museum in Thuin.

Production of these three PCC car batches started at the Belgian BN factory almost at the same time, around 1950, based on PCC patents. Looking at this trio, you can chat almost endlessly with other enthusiasts about all similarities and differences. The Belgian cars still show some characteristic features (headlight, doors or side windows) that could be found as well on the The Hague 1000 class in their original state
