Welcome to "Phil's Loco Photos"

Another twelve day trip to Greece, with the new ADtranz junk from Germany only a few months away it was time to savour the Alco power while it still reigned supreme. It was the usual horrible night flight and then into a day of mostly MLW action o the main line and then hotel in Leptokaria. Up to Thessaloniki next morning and east on 604 as we knew A-510 was down the line, we go as far as Komotini and surprisingly fin A-509 on 605 instead! Continue south to Paleofarcelos and then a day around Larissa before ending in Thessaloniki. A good day of A-201 and A-321 action on Kozani line and then south on 505 to Athina and after day in hills Leptokaria hotel again. Up to Thessaloniki and then A-555 all way to Pireaus Port again on train 502 to Thive where we discover the main line was blocked with a derailment at Karia. So a forced hotel in Thive and then A-457 to Lianokladi for bus to Domokos for A-558 to Thessaloniki and back to Leptokaria for A-556 back to Thessaloniki. After a run up to Idomeni with A-470 then a Plati and back and a Leptokaria and back and then 505 south as the main line was open again. Two Craiova runs over hill then pair of MLW to Thessaloniki and 505 back south again. On the Sunday it was more Craiova and MLW action and a night in Athina. Craiova power to Levadia and back and then a works visit to see A-557 being tested on the load bank and then flight back home
