Time is running out for the last of the once ubiquitious NS-Class 1700 -one of the Last Mohicans is 1750, seen here at Bad Bentheim in front of the IC Berlijn toward Amsterdam on 20 September 2016. The haulage of IC services between Amsterdam and Bad Bentheim is the very last assignment for Class 1700 and test rides for deployment of ELL Vectrons on this service in the Netherlands are underway.

NSR organised a farewell trip through the Netherlands, using NS 1761 with a rake of DBIC coaches, notmally deployed on the IC-Berlijn (Amsterdam to Bad Bentheim); the last passenger services for this once ubiquitious class electrics. On 19 November 2023 NS 1761 stands in Nijmegen, where she will take a break of ten minutes before continuing to Tilburg and Rotterdam, places, the IC-Berlijn was never to be seen. The phrase at the loco says "after more than 30 years of yeoman service it is time to say goodbye.". 
