Greek Fire Service uncovers remnants of missing cabin from Tempi train collision

·

The Greek Fire Service has discovered remnants of the missing cabin from the second engine of the freight train involved in the deadly February 2023 Tempi collision.

The wreckage was found during an inspection at Koulouri in Larissa, where the remains of the train are stored.

According to a February 27 report from the Hellenic Air and Rail Accident Investigation Authority (EODASAAM), part of the second engine was previously missing.

Sources confirmed to Kathimerini that the Fire Service’s arson crimes directorate (DAEE) found clear evidence of the cabin, including the driver’s seat and controls. A metallurgist has been called in to verify the findings.

The investigation at Koulouri will continue next week. An appellate judge overseeing the case has ordered an inspection of the missing section, and DAEE plans to expand its search to include the train’s dining car and first-class passenger section.
