Special Reoperation of Kalamata Depot

During the special temporary reoperation of Kalamata-Messini line in the second half of September, the central depot of southern Hellas in Kalamata saw some of its old glory. Trains moving again on its rails and people working under its roof again. Next to the MAN1 DMUs that were going to serve the suburban line, the old rulers of the meter gauge line...the glory of Peloponnese now forgoten and stored in the depot. Some others are rusting at the sidings. However, the sound of the engine in the building makes the railfan to imagine and hope for the best...
In this video you are going to see the preperations on the trains for the first train of this year's event and as well as some of the museum trains that are stored at Kalamata depot (mostly you will see those stabled into the main building). In the next video you are going to see shots from the line and te trains that ran on it for 9 days.
