==Rolling stock==

Proastiakos uses rolling stock owned by GAIAOSE and maintained by Hellenic Train. Currently{{when|date=July 2015}} multiple units are used almost exclusively. [[Siemens Desiro]] 5-car electric multiple units (EMU) are used for Piraeus - Athens - Airport,   Piraeus - Athens - Kiato, Athens – Chalkis and Thessaloniki - Larisa services, while [[Stadler GTW|Stadler GTW-2/6]] and MAN-2000 diesel two-car multiple units (DMU-2) are used for the Patras-Rio and Patras-Kato Achagia services. As these DMUs have limited passenger carrying capacity, two or three DMUs are coupled together, when rolling stock availability allows it.

In late 2020 however, [[TrainOSE]] announced plans to purchase new rolling stock which will consist of double decker EMU's, preferably from the Italian market. <ref>{{Cite web |title=ΤΡΑΙΝΟΣΕ: Έρχονται τα νέα τρένα, σχέδια για επιπλέον τρένα και στον Προαστιακό |url=https://www.news247.gr/oikonomia/trainose-erchontai-ta-nea-trena-schedia-gia-epipleon-trena-kai-ston-proastiako.9054278.html |access-date=2022-03-15 |website=www.news247.gr |date=19 November 2020 |language=el}}</ref>
