Very nice footage of the line to my hometown Delft! Good find! I hadn't seen footage this good before.

So much has changed in the years, but the track along the 'Vliet' channel is still unchanged. At least once a month PCC cars do a trip Den Haag - Delft and sometimes older beige trams as well. I should take photos of that this spring or summer.

 

Nowadays this is what the route to Delft looks like (extended to newly built housing areas):

 

Also interesting to note is that HTM no.58 has been completely restored last year for the celebration of 150 years trams in Den Haag in 2014:
