Stoomcentrum Maldegem

The main station building at Stoomcentrum Maldegem

Stoomcentrum Maldegem (SCM), literally Maldegem Steam Centre, is a heritage railway located at Maldegem in northern Belgium. It is located at the former NMBS station. Standard gauge trains run on the line to Eeklo, where the SCM has its own station. A 600 mm (1 ft 11 ⁵⁄₈ in) narrow gauge line runs to Donk on the former line to Bruges; this was supplemented by the standard gauge line in 1989.
