A259 & A256 at Aghios Ioánnis Depot. 1995.
Delivered in 1982 the 11 class A251's were all allocated to Athens Aghios Ioánnis Depot but could be found anywhere between Thessaloniki in the north of the country and Piraeus in the south. The first to be withdrawn was A260 but the remainder of the fleet started to be phased out in the late 1990's after a relatively short working life and into the early 2000's the remaining active members were withdrawn. None remain stored and all are dumped while 10 of the original 11 are thought to survive as wrecks around the network with 8 identified as being at Tithorea a few years ago.
A259 and A256 seen here in happier times catch the evening sun at their home depot in the southern suburbs of Athens at Aghios Ioánnis.
