Just 3 days before the operation of the Greece's longest railway tunnel and preparations are hectic. Effective from February 1st, the old railway section from Tithorea to Lianokladi in Central Greece, will cease to operate giving its place to the new adjacent double-track, high-speed line.

Modern electric trains will be able to cross Kallidromo Tunnel, as well as Tithorea-Lianokladi section in Central Greece and part of Athens-Thessaloniki renovated corridor, with speeds reaching up to 200 km per hour, a new reality that in the recent past seemed to be science fiction.
