Dear all, I have a photo of the Train Zs7535 which my Father took in the 1970s when he was travelling to Greece. It was already then out of commission.

Further to my last note, I do, of course, have a record of the ‘original’ Z 7.535 (Krauss 6615/1912) being extant at Nafplion!

The real (original) Zs 7.539 is Krauss 8323 of 1925 (Please Note build No.) apparently built with 2/3 others for the Attica Railway which had been taken over in 1910 by the Greek Electric Co. I can find no reference to this being ever owned by the SPAP (hence no company running number) which did, for a short time in the 1920s, and since 1962, become OSE. It (falsely) became OSE Z 7.535 for display at Kalamata. The original No. Zs 7.535 (SPAP 520) Krauss 4789/1902 is believed long since scrapped ?

Rebuilt to superheated simples after WW2, took the No. Zs 7535. The original Zs 7535 (Krauss 6615/1912) is currently as static display in Nauplion, Peloponnese.

This locomotive is indeed at the location listed but, as my photograph dated 9 June 2011 shows, it (mistakenly) bears the number 7535! The correct No. 7535 (properly No. Zs7.535) was located preserved adjacent to the new Nafplion Harbour Stn. on the same date.
