Musean Railway of Pelion Mountain (Volos - Milies)

28th July 2007

It 's a narrow gauge railway line (600 mm-decauville) constructed by
the Italian mechanic Evaristo De Chirico - Company of Thessalian Railways.
The urban part of the line was simultaneously Volos Tramway.
The first part Volos - Ano Lechonia is near the coast, but
the second part Ano Lechonia - Milies is mountainous.
The initial plan about Pelion Railway included another line from Milies to Zagora, but
due to lack of money it was never constructed.
In 1970 the line abandoned, but in 1985 Minister of Culture Merkouri Melina
nominated the line as historical monument.
Nowadays OSE undertakes summer trains from Anavros to Agria and from Ano Lechonia to Milies.
