In 2020, the disused railyard became the location for the Simvliet transport museum. Currently a few tracks have been electrified so the trains can be powered and can drive back and forth a bit, there are plans for electrifying more tracks so trains can drive around the yard on their own, however this is still limited by the fact that even though the yard is no longer in official use, it still has to remain operational as it's the only access point to the Simvliet Metro and delivery and exchanging of vehicles has to remain possible, as well as working trains have to be able to reach Bergpark depot.

Since Beta 3.11, more tracks have been electrified, including the one connecting Simvliet Haven with Bergpark Depot. In addition to that, next to the Simvliet Transport Museum, there is now, the Simvliet Haven Railway Station, which has a direct railway connection with Simvliet Centraal.
