Damage and return to Athens at low speeds
Damage to route 61 of the high-speed ETR was recorded outside Thessaloniki, in Platy. The “white arrow” passed through Tithorea and continues to Athens, but moves at a low speed.
The train made the evening route from Thessaloniki to Athens.
It should be noted that the high-speed routes, which make the route Athens-Thessaloniki and Thessaloniki-Athens in less than 4 hours, started on Sunday, May 16th.
A survey of journalists from 13 countries has highlighted the problems posed by the ETR-470 supercars and there have been assurances that the inspections have been completed.
The company confirms that the train had a “failure” and the passengers will be compensated, stressing that as completely renovated, like all new trains, it may have a failure.
