Milies Train Station is the end of Pelion Train route. Milies is an historic village with population of about 680 people (400 meters above sea). This video presents the final approach towards Milies, the scenery becomes more extreme, with the crossing
of the steel bridge of Taxiarhis, also known as “De Chirico’s Bridge” being the highlight of this last section. Here, some pretty unique engineering is at work. This is the first bridge that appears on video. This is a rare occasion where a train crosses a bridge that is straight, but the tracks that lie on it are actually curved!
The train run starts from Lehonia (1km from sea and 150 meters above sea leve). The altitude gained allows for a spectacular view over Pagasitikos bay.
Train’s maximum speed is but a mere 20km/hr.
The completion of this 15km run in a total of about 90 minutes. Construction began in 1892 and was completed in 1903. The chief engineer of the project was Evaristo De Chirico, father to the well know painter and sculptor Giorgio De Chirico.
The train normally operates from spring till autumn.
