christo.

Another one, or maybe the same one, I can't make the number out:


Olimpia Ολυμπία , August 1986. Photo Pierre B

I guess that the carriages are built in the former GDR. I wish I had taken a picture of the wagon at the rear of the train, but of course I did not .

Hello Pierre,

Thank you very much for the description and the first class photos(!!!) of the locomotive and the personal carriages. Indeed, the passenger coaches were built in the former GDR.
You`re absolutly right!

With best regards

Erwin

Hello Pierre,

the dieselengine on the photo looks like a ÖBB Type(2068), but I`m not sure!

Best regards

Erwin

I know it's the 9419 again, but i liked this photo
I'm looking forward to visit Pyrgos again after some years. meet my relatives and get some shots at the Olympia-Pyrgos-Katakolo line, one of the very few parts of the meter gauge still operational...

9412 + 9401 Piräus 6.10.90

Poor 9401, as well as 9405, 9406, 9407, 9410 and 9420 were stolen from where they were abandoned in 2011, at the line between Kardiakafti and Vartholomio .
