Talk:Proastiakos

message: Parts of the article describe the current (post-2007) network and others the situation in 2005. The article needs scanning for obsolete information. Sv1xv (talk) 14:42, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Please, note also that the temporary setup of routes  during Spring - Summer 2008 has in July been replaced with another one: current lines are Airport - Neraziotissa, Ano Liosia - Neraziotissa and Piraeus - Kiato. (This appears quite weird set of lines because travelling between Athens and Airport requires now changing train twice, in Ano Liosia and in Neraziotissa, and also requires use of the relatively infrequent Piraeus - Kiato service to reach Athens.) --Sivullinen (talk) 22:54, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

text: Since February 2009 passengers from Piraeus and Athens to the Airpoer change trains just once, as the line is electrified to Ano Liossia. Sv1xv (talk) 12:08, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Obsolete information

message: AFAIK, the tariffs and tickets and the ticketing system of Proastiakos differ from the ones of TrainOSE long distance service. A chapter about these should be added. (Especially, because both services must be used when travelling to/from Peloponnese and the differences should be understood by would-be travellers.) --Sivullinen (talk) 09:31, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

message: What is the current state of the old metric line Peloponnese station of Athens? Is is used as a railway station and for what services, or is it merely a preserved building? If preserved, is it open to public? Will it be part of the new CRS of Athens or will the new station fit in between the Larissis and Peloponnese stations? Just curious :) --Sivullinen (talk) 14:59, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It is merely a preserved building, without railway tracks. It is not open to the public, but a quick visit might be possible during weekday working (morning) hours with permission from railway staff. Sv1xv (talk) 23:40, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

message: Still unavailable? At least according to Athens Metro WP-article the services resumed in September 2009! --Sivullinen (talk) 18:43, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

message: Currently Chalkis services are not marketed as Proastiakos, they are still regional mainline services, like Volos-Larissa etc. See  and  where only two lines are listed as Proastiakos services. Please don't add them in this article for now. I have commented them out the recent additions by an IP address instead of deleting them, as they may become relevant in the future.
