BALKANMODELS FORUM

Well, after a short break I decided to build the famous Tram of Piraeus Perama line. It just completed the Beta2 Testing phase and it;s now ready for production. Here are a couple of videos and some pictures of it. Please take into account that these pics are from one of the first pieces, NOT the prototype.

Nice work Kosta! I hope it will find a place in many of our fellow modelers collections.


a 1961 Trevor Rowe shot, if I remember right from the SFS archive.

A photo of two models in an early assembly stage for two really good friends of mine!

Some more pictures of the first models...

Oh! 2,5 months left for delivery!!!!

Here you can see the latest pictures from the three trams, shortly before their delivery time and to their respective destinations.

Very nice models Kosta. They remember me the midseventies when I was child in Piraeus.

Thank you very much Stefanos. I wish I had seen them live, but I haven't. I used to live in Ilioupolis and my father who could have taken me there, didn't have anything to do with Piraeus, so I learned everything through a dozen beautiful pictures in the books, as well as all by photographing the last four vehicles that survived the madness of destruction, dismantling and abandonment. I wish I could do more...

Here a double traction model...

...and the catenary masts...
