On 5 April 2019 RailPromo 101001 (ex NS 1781) hauls two G2000s of IRP through ALverna. In 2021 RailPromo went bankrupt after which Dinner Train B.V. entered the fray of RP's core business of dinner train haulage in the Netherlands. COVID and even more the smallness of that niche took out Dinner Train B.V. in 2024 amidst much scnadal of non-paid salaries and customers' money 'disappearing' without refund after they bought a trip on the train that never was given. 
