A couple of JZ couchettes in Thessaloniki station forming part of the (I think) Hellas Express on the evening of Wednesday May 10th 2000.

Excellent photo of the green JZ sleeper Tim.

Here is model 17100 by Heris.

I had two pictures of the same car but if you notice there are some livery variations, so only Tim's photo matches the model.

The clock shows nearly 5 o'clock. What happy memories dodging the station staff and snapping carriages with exotic liveries and then praying that one day one will produce models of them.

My best memory of Thessaloniki station was watching a military train being made up with coaches and vans being fly shunted within the platform area - quite hair-raising!

Hi everybody, some great shots of Serbian rolling stock on the 2nd April 2007 with the 334 Hellas Express (Thessaloniki-Beograd) from Steffen Rehnig http://www.nachtschnellzug.de/ Note that they all are still in their JZ livery!
