The OSE Class 560 (Name: Stadler GTW 2/6, also known as Railbus) is a series of DMUs with 2 coaches, operated by TRAINOSE. They were built by a consortium of Hellenic Shipyards-Stadler-Bombardier and put into service at OSE in 2003. They look like the Class 4501, but their main difference is that the 560 is in the standard gauge, while the 4501 in the metric gauge, have the same capacity, speed, faces and manufacturers while being DMUs with two coaches, usually coupled with another carriage.
