Line changes

Hello, the "line" field in the railway infobox is meant for the railway line (e.g. Piraeus-Platy) and not for the routes. At least that is what the documentation of {{infobox station}} says. --Minoa (talk) 19:59, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I am about to batch-update the station articles, so I would advise that you wait until tomorrow to avoid edit conflicts. --Minoa (talk) 20:11, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Ok! GoatGamer1 (talk) 20:14, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

All-clear. I think we need to review the "electrified" field and replace them with the date when the station started being served by electric trains, if they opened without electrification before. I have no sources on that. --Minoa (talk) 22:43, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

The section from Doukissis Plakentias to the Airport were served by electric trains from the9 start, by metro line 3. The intermediate stops started being served in 2006 by the metro, and before the suburban railway only ran diesel trains on today's line A1. The stations to Neratziotissa were electrified by 2007, and there were electric suburban railway trains from then on. The remaining part of tzzoday's line A2 was electrified in 2009, and because of that today's A1 was discontinued. In 2010 the section of today's A4 from Ano Liosia to Kiato was electrified, and that section was transferred from today's A4 to today's A2. In 2012, the section of A4 south of Athens was transferred to line A3.In 2013 the northern part of A3 was electrified, and by 2017 the whole A3 was electrified, and the former A4 section was transferred back to A4, and the A1 was reintroduced. Line A3 was split, and the part south of Athens remained the last line of the network not to be electrified. In 2018, this part became once again part of lines A1 and A4, and the 2007 lines had returned, with the addition of A2, but it was entirely electrified. Stations opened after its section was electrified were electrified from their opening. GoatGamer1 (talk) 12:23, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

Hello, just a quick follow-up that the Greek Suburban Rail articles need to be updated too, as they are still using line numbers made-up by the blocked user Pumpie. --Minoa (talk) 11:09, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

Patras Suburban Railway

I wonder if you can help me collect reliable sources for a standalone article about the Patras Suburban Railway? I am actually not doing well and the history of the commuter rail service in Proastiakos is a total mess of unsourced statements, especially since line numbers (P1/P2) only came into use from August 2023. --Minoa (talk) 08:50, 3 October 2023 (UTC)

A62, A621 and A64

I apologise if I am a bit behind on this, but I wonder if there are photographs proving that the road renumbering took place after many years of delays? You should, if possible, take photos that evidence the new signs and upload it to the Wikimedia Commons, but you will need to release them under a free licence, such as Creative Commons Attribution Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike. --Minoa (talk) 20:10, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Unfortunately I don't have photographs of the renumbering and I am no longer in Athens, however there might be evidence on the internet. I have seen that on the new Attiki Odos signage, installed this summer, which has lowercase letters rather than the former all caps, that the new numbering has been applied.

Also, I do not know the exact dates of when the maintenance started. As of very recently, the maintenance had been mostly completed, I think, but there were still remnants of the former signage and numbering (for example in A64 there were both remnants of the former A62 numbering as well as the new numbering, font and lowercase letters in favour of uppercase letters). According to a video on the Attiki Odos YouTube channel, there's evidence of the maintenance having started at the latest last October.
