The two-part Dutch Electric Multiple Unit Plan V that was better known in the Netherlands as "Mat '64" or under the nickname Apekop (Monkey Head), became one of the standard local trains of the Dutch State Railways in the mid-1960s. With 246 units, it was the NS's most-built multiple unit at the time.
Plan V1 and V2 were delivered in a green colour scheme with sand-yellow decorative stripes. The Plan V of the 3rd construction series was painted yellow from the factory in 1968. The multiple units delivered earlier were then also repainted yellow between 1969 and 1973. They operated on nearly all electrified railway lines in the Netherlands until their withdrawal from service.
