This template implements custom headers for the infoboxes of all railway, metro and tram stations in Greece.
Presently, the headers cannot be integrated into {{#invoke:Adjacent stations}}, due to the lack of support for Greek over English, variable backgrounds, outer borders, conditional icons, and conditional line colours.
Usage
{{Infobox station/Header GR
| name_el =
| name =
| mode =
| mode_2 =
| line =
| line_2 =
}}
|name_el=Station name in Greek, as it appears on the signage|name=Station name in English, as it appears on the signage|mode=First mode of transport served|mode_2=Second mode of transport served (optional, requires|mode=to be set)|line=First metro line or mode stripe|line_2=Second metro line or mode stripe (optional)
Mode values
|mode= and |mode_2= supports the following values, but |mode_2= will not work unless |mode= is set:
| Mode | Value | Output |
|---|---|---|
| Hellenic Railways Organisation | S
|
|
| Hellenic Railways Organisation | SO
|
|
| Athens International Airport (appears as white on a blue background) |
AA
|
|
| Athens Metro | AM
|
|
| Athens Suburban Railway | AS
|
|
| Athens Tram | AT
|
|
| Patras Suburban Railway | PS
|
|
| Thessaloniki Suburban Railway | TS
|
|
As of September 2024[update], the Thessaloniki Metro does not have a system icon.
In accordance with the situation on the ground, transit symbols (mode and mode_2) should be avoided on Athens and Thessaloniki Metro stations, except for:
- Multimodal interchanges with a common name (e.g. Neos Kosmos and Piraeus in Athens)
- Athens Metro Line 3 between Pallini and Koropi
The logo of Hellenic Train should not be used because they do not operate stations, similar to Renfe in Spain.
Stripe values
|line= and |line_2= supports the following values. There is no stripe for Athens Suburban Railway stations from Acharnes Railway Center to Chalcis.
| Mode | Value | Colour | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Athens Metro, Line 1 | AM1
|
#007A33
|
— |
| Athens Metro, Line 2 | AM2
|
#DA291C
|
— |
| Athens Metro, Line 3 | AM3
|
#10069F
|
— |
| Athens Metro, Line 4 | AM4
|
#FFA300
|
— |
| Athens Suburban Railway Piraeus to the Airport, except Athens |
AS
|
#FFCD00
|
This template automatically sets the stripe to #00A3E0 if |name=Athens.
|
| Athens Suburban Railway Zefyri to Aigio, and Athens |
ASK
|
#00A3E0
| |
| Athens Tram | AT
|
#78BE20
|
— |
| Thessaloniki Metro, Line 1 | TM1
|
#DA291C
|
TM12 sets the stripe to red/blue, according to signage inside stations such as Dimokratias (example):[1] the template rejects TM12 as a bottom stripe, because it uses inset drop shadows to achieve the dual-line effect.
|
| Thessaloniki Metro, Line 2 | TM2
|
#10069F
| |
| Thessaloniki Suburban Railway Thessaloniki to Larissa only |
TS
|
#10069F

Technical information
The mode icons will not appear in hard copies or mobile versions of articles that use this header: the former is to conserve printer ink, and the latter is to improve navigation on small screens.
