A very special coach from Frankie. He has already posted them at the amnizia forum but I'd like to have them here as well for our friends from abroad.

JZ 51 72 89-70 900-1 Salon with the 290 Akropolis (Athens-Beograd) shot at Lianokladi station in 1993. The engine is the 419

I come again with some fresh info about the JZ Salon coach from our friend Frankie.

It was part of the 290/291 Acropolis consists, and was strictly used by Serbs businessmen, diplomats, and were rumors that politicians were traveling with it too.
The doors connecting it with the rest of the train were locked and it was unaccessible by the rest of the passengers. The curtains were always closed so no one could see inside.
When leaving Athens with train 290, it was first behind the engine, coming from Beograd with the 291, was at the end of the train.

Thanks, it's only a mater of good connections, sources and reliable informers :D

PS. about the JZ Salon, all this makes me to wonder how the distinguished passengers were spending their time, maybe a looooong night party was going on :mrgreen:
