An important railway line in Northern Greece, Used for long-distance passenger and commercial traffic.
The Thessaloniki-Skopje line was opened in 1872 as part of the historical network of the Chemins de fer Orientaux' (English: Oriental Railway) Construction of the line had been charted in 1870, with work commencing in 1872, to link Thessaloniki and Skopje with Belgrade and consequently with the main European rail network. In 2011 all international railway routes from Thessaloniki to Skopje and Belgrade were interrupted.

Ah David the Macedonian! No that was Alexander the Great! Finally the Balkans too! This is the territory of a great KZreadr called Dulevoz and he does all the cabrides in the Balkans, especially in Serbia. I saw that you also made the video in Bulgaria almost up to Gotse Delcev, then I'll watch it. Wild landscape on Skopje-Veles, the ancient Titov Veles! You can see a huge difference between the Slovenian and Macedonian lines, yet they were part of the same state, Yugoslavia. This line represents the main backbone not only of Macedonia but of much of the Balkans. I saw that they abolished international connections! What a pity! It would have been nice to do a Cabride from Belgrade to Thessaloniki! Even in parts, as you know how to do! We are satisfied! However the rolling stock is all new! Both in Croatia, and in Slovenia, Serbia and also in Macedonia. Perhaps with the future entry into the EU, there could be greater investments on the line, perhaps even a doubling of the tracks. Congratulations David! You made all Macedonians happy today! Finally a new flag strikes newly on Rail Relaxation Channel. Now, every 2 days i control your channel, seeing updates and after i sign all the ones to see. Great!

@wladislaw79 Thank you Wladislav, it would be great if I could do it from Belgrade to Thessaloniki. It is a pity that there are no connections. It used to be a great line and I imagine that very busy one. I am planning one day to do the journey as it was on the Famous Orient Express. I wish you a nice day.
Thank you for this video! And the rest of route from Veles to Bitola will be recorded too? It's a very beautiful route!

Contrairement à certains commentaires, je trouve la voie et son assiette en assez bon état, la caténaire également. Pour la signalisation et les passages à niveau, c'est moins évident ! Belle balade à vitesse de train touristique, dommage pour 1 ligne à vocation internationale. Amitiés de Belgique 🤗

Oh, Macedonia! I wonder if you intend to cover all the currently active railways in here. Sadly its the same story as with most ex-Yugoslavian countries in regards to the infrastructure: after the dissolution it fell into disrepair, despire it being an important line. This can be seen with the overgrown or removed tracks (where the trackbed is still in place), rusty rails, derelict signals and overhead lines, broken level crossings, etc... :(

@CFRTrainSpotter I have some more footages from Macedonia. It is a shame that there are no connections between those ex-Yugoslavian countries any more. In the old times you could get all the way to Istanbul. I will try to organise to go back in the summer and film some more lines over there.
@CFRTrainSpotter

it is a big shame yes, and one of the drawbacks of the fall of Yugoslavia (no matter who you support) - more border checks and lack of investment in infrastructure leading to fewer international service. even around 20 years ago it was possible to go from Skopje to Ljubljana (and in the summer there would be a couchette going from Thessaloniki to Vienna), but now? i cant see any international connections to Macedonia on vagonweb. its the same story with Bosnia and Herzegovina... and quite frankly i cant see a solution to all of this even with the promotion of rail transport :(
Thank you! Beautiful landscape!

well this line would have gotten electrified at some point sooner or later, in the communist era this was part of the Thessaloniki to Belgrade corridor that was used by lots of international services. i think this happened around the late 1970s/early 1980s when the new station in Skopje opened...

What was the cause of the interruption of through service between Thessaloniki and Belgrade in 2011? Poor infrastructure? I assume today any freight traffic between Thessaloniki and central Europe now moves via Sophia, Bulgaria?

Južnije od Velesa je zanimljivije, kroz Demir Kapiju. No nije lako naći informacije o prugama u Makedoniji - informacije na Wikipediji, open street/railway mapu, network statementu, tehničkoj enciklopediji i općenito na Internetu su vrlo loše i nepotpune. Doduše ispada da i službeno tuneli nemaju nazive.
