Hellas-Express

There were two types of FIAT Railcar and two types of Trailer. All vehicles had different lengths. The old Fiats and Trailers 1950 were with solid doors while the newer Fiats and Trailers 1958 were with concertina doors.

Here are a couple of not so wonderful pictures either:

On the left hand side of the second picture, there is something mysterious to me. Of course I didn't really notice it then, so I did not take any pictures of it as such and waited until it was half hidden by the railcar.

there is something mysterious

It looks like a Familleureux carriage which had been converted to a works vehicle, but as before no documents, sorry Jason , just a hunch. Pray tell if you know.

PS But on the right of the Fiat it looks like a Pafawag carriage.

It's that coach:

It is obviously a ''Familleur-oid'', but i dont know if it is actually a Familleureux. It is known that after W.W. II, SEK were refurbishing the survived carriages and the carriages left by the Germans in Greece, based on the Familleureux design - prototype. This one, as you can notice in the photo i posted, has German GÖRLITZ III type bogie, so the chances are more, that it is probably an ex- German coach.

Of course, if we could find the number (maybe i can, but it needs a lot of time & search), the whole mystery would be solved...

FIAT Railcars 1950 - 1958. They worked for over 40 years successfully. They were part of WWII Italian reperations to Greece.
