OSE Works & Auxiliary Vehicles

[GAZKGK]

Aaaahhhhhhh...... now , i remembered

21 73 156 9 158-4 which was the only wagon to have a ''newer'' type of auxiliary vehicle numbering (the older was 19ΧΧΧ, then X0 73 100 7 XXX-X and this one has 20 73 100 8 001-6). Withdrawn at Ligaria.

Jason, you are great!!!

now we have all the 4 wagons of the assistance train! the van being offered by Aipha Models
one more step and we are going to have the whole consist in scale

all we are going to need is a model of the huge Τφπτ 20001 crane that seems they were escorting

[GAZKGK]

Two more cranes...


The '' AMERICANS '', built in 1944 by AMERICAN HOIST & DERRICK COMPANY, in America


Τφπ 18954 - Lamia, can still work

Τφπ 18955 - Rentis .

Δ.81 as shot by Frankie at Tithorea, Spring 1994
built by MATISA in 1973, was used to record the track problems.

I've met her, retired for good, some 20 years later at Lianokladi

as you can see she still has that "trailer" with a small crane coupled.
if anybody knows how it's called in English please let us know, there is a specific word for it in OSE terminology, but I never remember it.
and as Jason has said "treilers" are used for carrying dogs

[GAZKGK]

The greek word is «τροχοφορεία» .... not so difficult to remember


P.S.: Franky had said that about dogs, not me ...

[BarbaPanagos]

thanks Jason, I'll try to remember it

let's have a look at some dresines, with or without "τροχειοφορειο"

ΜΒ.382 at Lianokladi seems to be retired

ΜΒ.302, Lianokladi, looks at a better state and probably operational...

ΜΒ.305, Agios Ioannis

ΜΒ.306, Agios Ioannis

ΜΒ.307, Agios Ioannis

this one seems operational too, was in front of the 305 last September

finally, one that looks different, withdrawn now at Lianokladi

let's wait for the expert to give us more info about types, numbers etc

A today's (29/12/2013) photo at Trachina .... with ΔΓ-89 (built by MER.-MEC. [MERIDIONAL MECCANICHE Societa per Azioni], 1997), ''ο μέρμεκας'' as i call it returning from its regular track inspection...

thanks Jason, I've not seen them before
strange that ΔΓ.87 seems to be of a different type (?)
