A newspaper in Curaçao printed this photo in 1955 and of course claimed that the KLM airliner had to wait for the train; however, a railway spur of German military origin skirts around the western perimeter at Hörsching. It seems odd, though, that this is a passenger train. Photo from: Nationaal Archief (Netherlands)
