narrow gauge steam trains near Volos, Greece


A pic from the 1900s and what seems a very similar train in the same area about 60 years later.

In the past Volos was served by railway lines of three different gauges, the metre-gauge line of Thessaly Railways to Kalampaka, the standard gauge line to Larissa and the 600 mm (1 ft 11 5⁄8 in) gauge line to Pelion. Remnants of the different gauges still exist near the station.
