Hellenic Train expands the services of the Patras Suburban Railway by providing itineraries to Kato Achaia, introducing the possibility of issuing a new daily ticket (lasting 24 hours) for multiple routes.
The Patras Suburban Railway now connects the areas of Agios Vassilios and Kato Achaia with daily itineraries, contributing to the faster and comfortable movement of the passenger public of the wider area with the center of Patras, bypassing the city’s traffic.

In addition, Hellenic Train offers Railway and Patras Suburban Railway card holders, fast and economical bus transfer to / from Rio Hospital and the University of Patras, commuting with Kastellokampos Railway Station, serving students, employees & visitors.
