[b]A little story about this trip:[/b]
We bought the supplement (unfortunately I cant remember how much, around €20 I think) at Bar station, which is tiny with only a couple of buildings. There is, however, a left luggage facility. The train left on time, and arrived into Podgorica where there was some kind of power cut. We spend a couple of hours at Podgorica station before we set off again for the journey through the night. When we woke up we had not yet reached Nis, where the train is attached to the Belgrade-Skopje train. We arrived in Nis missing our connection, so the whole carriage (which was half empty) was taken out to lunch by the train guard at what I am guessing was the train station canteen. Quite an experience. We arrived into Skopje at about midnight.
