OSE World Series DL500's

OSE DL500C "World Series" ALCO A-302 is seen at Thessaloniki, having
just arrived with train 724, the 13.07 from Kozani, running about an
hour late. The last operational DL500C in Greece, she returned down
the branch to Kozani early the next morning. Hopefully this Loco will
be preserved, and repainted into the very handsome old Blue and Silver
livery. Photo taken on Friday 20th February 1998. Phil Wormald photo

A-310 in the attractive old blue livery at Thessaloniki on train 714,
the mid-day train to Kozani. The ALCO was restricted to working on
four traction motors, and was removed at Komanos. A-302 replaced it
there and work the final stretch to Kozani. Photo taken on 17th

OSE A-308 is seen on train 614 just short of the station at Gazoras,
the loco having just failed due to a loss of coolant water. The train
was dragged into the station, where after replenishing the header tank
the DL500 ALCO was able to continue alone to Thessaloniki. Seen on
Sunday 20 October 1996. Phil Wormald photo

Thanks to Andrew Jones for these two shots of A302 in its brand new colors.  It's seen outside the Volos shed and on a rail tour at Aghie, both in April 2000.  The 'new' old colors sure look nice on the classic survivor.
