Indeed! That is quite a price! The kit looks beautiful, I just wonder how practical it is from a business perspective. Are there many modellers of Volos specifically? Not knowing the market well myself, I'm surprised that Marklin wouldn't make a more "typical" Greek station.

Photo Balkanmodels: October 1990 at Eptapyrgio (Yedi Kule) Thessaloniki. A rare shot of the old fortress within the fortress which later gained notoriety as a prison for many good patriots as well as bogiemen. It was closed for good a few months before the taking of this photo. Today the area is built up and totally transformed and unrecognizable.

It is already 4 years tomorrow since the start of the forum. Forum members and visiting guests have been writing to me to express what an excellent reference site the forum has become. So with this aim achieved, I would like to celebrate our birthday with two more photos. Any member who wishes the watermark removed can write to me.

Photo Balkanmodels: April 1990 The old CO headquarters building near the old railway station in Thessaloniki.

This building was later moved closer to the railway lines to allow for the building of a highway to Athens. http://www.escapegreece.com/en/location ... ay-station There are more pictures on the net of the building in its new position.

Agios Ioannis Station, September 22, 2017. Electrification is about to arrive!

Unfortunately this caused the partial demolition of the pedestrian bridge...

As I have found out, it's more than two months now that it has been gone...
I'm already missing it and all the photos we would have shot from up there...
