“Decommission” basic safety measures to prevent a railway accident told “K” about the tragedy in Tempi Vasilis Zavoyannisrepresentative employees on its board of directors TRAIN. As he characteristically noted, neither the signaling nor the remote control work, and the trains work exactly the same as they did 30 years ago.

“The main problem is in this line Athens- How is Thessaloniki? alarm not working and Remote controlbasic security means that they protect trains from accidents. In fact, this critical railway for the country in terms of its security and protection in 2023 is judged only by the human factor. Our trains work just like they worked before from 30 years. Figuratively speaking, it’s like we have A pit in front of our house. We know where it is and we always avoid it, but at some point we get there. That is what happened in this case.”

Especially for remote control system, Mr. Zavoyannis notes that yes there is, however, it never worked. “This is what the unions have been calling for since 2018, when the route began to pass through the Callidromou tunnel, after Tiforea, to Lianoklady, instead of the route that had previously passed through Amphicleia, Lilaia and Bralos. Remote control and alarms were an important part of the line’s modernization, but they have caught on.”

Mister. Zavoyannis considers the human error scenario the most common in terms of the causes of the accident, while emphasizing that the flow pattern routes did not have transparent. “WITHI think about it like yesterday, right?for a whole 45 minutes we were looking for which section of the route the train. What happened is shocking. Together with all the dead railway workers, we lost from what at the moment we know nine of our colleagues from this accident.”
