guess everybody (including me ) is fed up with all these slide wall cars...

BarbaPanagos, there were slide wall cars even in those days...

Photo Balkanmodels: Lianokladi April 1993. Two Transwaggon DB registered double Vans accompanying the car carriers with new vehicles from Germany with Love.

Photo Balkanmodels: October 1990 at PES Thessaloniki. A Belgian container wagon with ancient wagons in the background. Note that this is a different type of wagon from the Belgian one I previously posted.

Photo Balkanmodels: October 1990 at PES Thessaloniki. A SEA-LAND container in front of a train of them dedicated to my friend who likes containers.

Photo Balkanmodels: April 1990 a few months earlier at the same place. Containers stacked in front of the ancient building that was designated as a future museum of steam locomotives.

I have also a few photos of their wagons to scan soon, but I am afraid pushing ebay prices up especially roco items

We haven't had such ageist comments since Tim used to post. But I do not know where he is gone now a days

OK BarbaPanagos he might "find" us again. But let us for the time being console ourselves with some more photos.

Photo Balkanmodels: October 1990 at PES Thessaloniki. This 2 axle flat is carrying two tank containers which carry ANTINOCK COMPOUND. Unfortunately I did not mark its country of origin. Interesting project for jonmood in the background; the water tower. Needless to say again that all you see is gone.

I did not mark its country of origin

I was rather hoping that someone could recognise the wagon of the previous photo, but so far we had no guessing. Anyway we continue...

Photo Balkanmodels: October 1990 at PES Thessaloniki. No electric wires yet and in the background the building of the old Mill. It now has developed into a culture centre with eating facilities http://www.mylos.gr/ a better photo here http://www.giakoumidis.gr/photo-press-a ... toID=11764
