The remote control system along the Platys - Aiginio railway line in Greece has been restored following an act of vandalism that necessitated new installations. Workers from the Hellenic Railways Organization (OSE) labored for more than 15 hours to install new wires and fiber optics, which were encased in metallic enclosures and cemented to withstand potential future damage. This highlights the urgency and complexity of maintaining railway systems in the face of vandalism.

In response to the vandalism, police investigations are ongoing, with authorities, including the Greek FBI and the Organized Crime Unit of Northern Greece, actively looking for leads. Fingerprints have been collected from metal components and severed wires at the scene, although no suspects have been identified yet. This level of investigation suggests the significant resources being allocated to apprehend those responsible and restore public confidence in the safety of the railway services.

Additionally, a preliminary examination has been ordered by the Thessaloniki Appeals Prosecutor's Office to determine whether criminal charges can be pursued for the vandalism case. This procedural step emphasizes the legal ramifications of such actions and the seriousness with which authorities view the disruption of essential transportation systems. The situation’s resolution is not just about repair, but also ensuring accountability and prevention of similar incidents in the future.
