The mission of the “De Karel” Foundation is to preserve industrial heritage with a focus on historical railway material. This would not only be done through maintenance, but also through operation. Operation of the train means it is visibly preserved for Dutch culture.
The Karel Foundation also focuses on the preservation of legacies and bequests. All proceeds go to preservation of the “De Karel” trainset, maintenance of the certificate and KWF Dutch Cancer Society.
