NS DM 90

The NS Class 3400, referred to as DM'90, was a series of diesel multiple unit which were in service in the Netherlands between 1996 and 2017 and were built by Duewag, Talbot and SIG between 1996 and 1998. They were operated by the Nederlandse Spoorwegen and between 1999 until 2014 under lease by Syntus. DM'90, their classification, means diesel rolling stock (Diesel Materieel in Dutch) of the 1990s or Buffel, which means Buffalo. The DM'90 series was developed alongside the short lived electric counter part, the SM'90 ("stopping-train" or commuter rolling stock of the 1990s) series with which it shares the unusual body cross section. The Class 3400 were the last DMUs in service with NS, the older DE3 "Plan U" and DH1/2 "Wadloper" series having been replaced by the diesel electric Stadler GTW which are still in use with other operators in the Netherlands. Since January 2018, all units are now stored out of service and 32 units have been sold to the SKPL - Poland's private railway operator, where they have been reclassified to SD85.
