Summary

[edit]
Description

Seen outside the shed at Diakopto on 1 November 1992 is 750mm rack fitted railcars used on the steeply graded line to Kalavryta. This 22km line built in the 189os was first worked by steam. In the 1950s the first batch of diesel units were specially built for the line. Three further sets built in France by Decauville in 1967, classified class 3004 one of which is seen here. The units were basically a motor car and control car with a power generator (OPE) sandwiched in between

Since then four 3-car units built in 2009 by Stadler have taken over the operation which sees largely tourist traffic at the weekends.
