Do we know which numbers were running at Thessaly narrow gauge, thus they had two buffers?

Since the track was on the dining table awaiting Les' visit, I thought of doing some more running tests with the MAN 1. I wish there was more time for further development, or prospective buyers or preferably both.

Please ignore the gripe or else BarbaP will exile my post to small talk....

And later pushing its twin unit.

As we say "a photo is worth a thousand words"!! Obviously you're expanding out of the shed!!!
This little MAN looks great!

Another 'one thousand word photo' for your collection, my friend . Maybe you can see why expansion is necessary. Two people in the shed and one is one too many .

And some more things:

*These trains (and the MAN ICs) have the SAME dimensions with the standard gauge trains but different bogies, which means that they CAN run on standard gauge lines.
*The bar was there until about 2000.Then it was turned into luggage space.Only 6521 has a bar inside, and the unit is being gradually destroyed at ΜΠ.Ρ....
