Train from Athens to Kalambaka

i booked train 884 from Athens to Kalambaka, got email confirmation, and credit card was charged.

on the ticket, it shows "Αθήνα ⇒ Καλαμπάκα - ΔΙΑΚΟΠΗ / TRAIN CHANGE".
When i use translation, ΔΙΑΚΟΠΗ means "discontinued".

is this train discontinued? what that meant? anyone had similar experience?
thanks in advance.

Greece cancelled many trains a couple of years ago, but I have not seen news about new cancellations on that route and I would not worry about it. http://www.visitmeteora.travel/en/getting-to-meteora/getting-to-meteora-by-train shows #884 as a direct train. Since they have translated the word as "Train Change," this might be a blank space where the ticket would list any required connection points, if there were any. I find this graphic online as an example of a fill-in-the-blanks style of train ticket.
