Hello, I've been on the bulgarian train website and for the international trains I cant find the timetable for sofia to istanbul...are there any trains from bulgaria that actually go to istanbul? Also if there is then what are the night train supplements on that too...

Cheers :)

I swear we were charged more than that. And it was about 4 hours late

as much as I saw it there was a wagon with 3-bed-compartments (usually with 2 persons inside) and a wagon with 6-bed-couchettes... :o
but correct me if I saw it wrong - as having to much cheap beer from the train staff. ;)

I dont have any new information this year - last year it was def only sleepers. Would be awesome if theyd added a couchette coach though

I just checked - it's a BDZ couchette and should run from 1.6. till 30.10. Sofia - Istanbul and 2.6 till 31.10 Istanbul - Sofia.
