作者在介绍了荷兰对铁路运输（特别是客运）的需求情况之后，描述了电力牵引和内燃电力牵引的发展。文中描述了1944年9月荷兰政府在伦敦号召铁路工人罢工之后的情况，以及随后德国人有组织的掠夺行为。还介绍了为修复损坏所采取的措施以及战后电气化系统的扩展情况。1921年采用的1500伏直流系统在1945年经过重新考虑，由于它最适合荷兰的铁路状况而被保留下来。到目前为止，一直专门使用动车列车，但在不久的将来也打算使用电力机车。荷兰铁路从市或省的供电公司购买电能。文中介绍了变电站、轨道分段室和架空线路，并给出了这些项目的建设成本数据。还介绍了机车车辆的情况，包括对不同列车组的描述，并涉及了列车阻力问题。文章最后对电力牵引和内燃电力牵引进行了比较，作者借助有关这两种牵引形式的各种财务数据给出了详细信息。由此可以清楚地看出荷兰铁路为何决定在其系统的进一步现代化中采用电力牵引。
After giving some information regarding the demands on railway transport in the Netherlands, with special reference to passenger traffic, the author describes the development of electric and Diesel-electric traction. The conditions following the railway strike called by the Dutch Government in London in September, 1944, and the subsequent systematic pillaging by the Germans, are described. Information is given on the measures taken to repair the damage and on the post-war extension of the electrified system. The 1 500-volt d.c. system, which was adopted in 1921, was reconsidered in 1945, and has been retained as being the most suitable one for railway conditions in Holland. Hitherto motor-coach trains have been used exclusively, but in the near future it is intended also to use electric locomotives. The Netherlands Railways purchase electrical energy from municipal or provincial electricity supply companies. A description of the substations, the track-sectioning cabins and the overhead lines is given, as well as some figures for the erection costs of these items. Information is given concerning the rolling stock, including a description of the different train-sets, and train resistance is dealt with. The paper concludes with a comparison of electric and Diesel-electric traction, in which the author gives detailed information with the aid of various financial data concerning both forms of traction. From this it will be clear why the Netherlands Railways have decided in favour of electric traction for the further modernization of their system.
