Odontotos Railway: Diakofto - Kalavryta

Local nameΟδοντωτός σιδηρόδρομος Διακοπτού - Καλαβρύτων
LocationZachlorou, Greece

The Diakopto–Kalavryta railway is a historic 750 mm gauge rack railway in Greece. Located on the northern Peloponnese, it runs 22 km from Diakopto through the Vouraikos Gorge and the old Mega Spilaion Monastery and up to Kalavryta, stopping en route at Zachlorou.

At the Diakopto terminus, the line connects with the new standard-gauge Athens Airport–Patras railway; as of 2019 the new track is in place in a cutting through the station yard.

The line was built between 1885 and 1895 by the Piraeus, Athens and Peloponnese Railways. Today, the infrastructure and rolling stock are owned and maintained by the Hellenic Railways Organisation and passenger trains are operated by TrainOSE.
