Hellas-Express

Photo Balkanmodels: April 1995 NES Thessaloniki. Carriage 5173 2080 606-3 resting in Line 8. Easy to spot with the long handrails and unique raised metal 2s to denote their class. Some were painted white and red in an attempt to run them uniformly with the EN red and white ones. I don't think I have a photo but I have seen one on the internet.

OK Jason. You spotted 606 (which is also in green in my photo)), 615 and the one in Lianocladi. Do you or Tim know that one's number?

christo.

Sorry, didn't note the number, it was covered in graffiti one side and I seem to recall there was a thick growth of weeds between it and the Breda coach beside it so I didn't bother.
