Have you watched Superalbs Travels' video on this exact route? 1st loco broke down at midnight and the replacement broke down at midday, causing them to be 10 hours late

Mamma mia , come io amo l'ex Jugoslavia. Hvala lepa. Grazie mille dal Sud Italia per il bellissimo video.

Belgrade has magnificent hystorical Railway Train station building but it is turnes into the museum now because of its importance and authenticity. The one that you saw is just temporary

That was one of the most iconic routes in ex Yugoslavia. Your choice is pretty good.

This journey is a must do for any railway enthusiast, I am really surprised that there isn't a buffet car on this 11 hour train and I think the stations could use a brush up or refurbishment but the scenery in Montenegro is spectacular, what a lovely country to visit

Would be amazing if Serbia and Montenegro started a reconstruction and modernization project of this line.. meaning overhaul it completely and buy new trains for it.. maybe few nice "etno village" stops along the way.. would be an amazing tourist attraction.

Really nice view! Greetings from Podgorica

Visit the national parks in Montenegro -Durmitor, in Bosnia - Sutjeska Zelengora, in Serbia - Tara mount. Near the borders of Serbia, Bosnia and Montenegro, nature is the most beautiful in Europe. There are also the Drina, Tara, and Piva rivers, which are beautiful. I suggest rafting on the Tara River in the month of May, and on that occasion you should set aside 15 days to visit the national parks of this part of the world.

Serbia and Montenegro are slowly working on building integrated border crossings (at least on the roads) so hopefully in the future they might figure out a solution for the train as well.

I really hatte how all the train are tagged. I would pledge for death penalty for taggers
