Love that greasy ground. Lovely era that 'diesel' one

Not only greasy but in some parts inside the shed there were metal shavings from turning wheels ( I suppose) which played havoc to my flip flops.

Photo Balkanmodels: August 1986 at the Engine Shed Thessaloniki. Loco MLW A501 has moved out of its stall and lining up for sand. Fumes, noise and a vast sea of orange and blue locomotives with a little green tinge. If there was a paradise then it would have looked like this .

We all know what this "gate" at the foreground is for, I don't know how it is called in Greek or English either...

[BalkanExpress]

The raylway term for that 'gate' is loading gauge for the rolling stock. My greek is so unexistant, so I can't help you, BarbaP

As completely correct Adelardo said, Barbapanagos, the "gate" u said, is called "loading-gauge" = περιτύπωμα (peritipoma) in Greek.
