Sorry again, but i have another main question about Montenegro itself (Podgorica, particularly).

It's easy get the capital (or another main city) from Skopje (Macedonia) or Sofia (Bulgaria)? I mean, there are regular trains to Montenegro from this countries?

Sorry, but there are no informations over the internet about this zone.

There is (was) a direct train from Bar via Podgorica to Skopje. It was overnight, one per day but I think only runs in the summer, and might not run any more. There are trains to Nis in Serbia where you can change for trains to Skopje and Sofia.

Thanks SiDUDe.
I'll try know more about the connection Nis-Podgorica. Sounds me perfect.
I'll try aswell see some information about Skopje-Podgorica(the line that you dont have sure about the current status).
By the way, does anyone know something about this lines?

Its just a carriage that gets attached to the Bar - Belgrade train, and changed onto the Belgrade - Skopje train at Nis. When I did it we missed the connection so the train guard to us all out to lunch in the station restaurant!

But there are some conection from Skopje or Sofia to Nis and then from Nis to Podgorica?

I mean, came from south or east to Nis, there are some train conection to Podgorica by train?

Dont bother me if i need to go to Nis to catch a train to Podgorica. In fact i want to see Nis aswell. I dont need a direct conection from Sofia or Skopje or wherever to Podgorica. I just want to get Podgorica from Sofia or Skopje. (Or in last choice, get Podgorica from some other place in the globe... by train xD)

There are some conections for sure?


Best regards

Belgrade to Bar via Podgorica (though probably not via Nis) is a regular service..................... takes about 11 hours, maybe 9 hours to Podgorica. There is Serbia train route map here 212.62.59.16/red_voznje1/mreza_pruga.jpg and there is timetable here www.serbianrailways.com/active/en/home.html
Apparently the Belgrade Bar trip is pretty! This is a reasonably comfortable train with sleeper cars and nice views (even at night). Upgrade to the cabins with two beds only for 100% improvement. Prices are pretty reasonable. There is also comfortable day IC train from Bar and Podgorica.
Srecno (= good luck)!

The only international train connections to/from Montenegro run via Beograd. There is currently only one direct day and night train Beograd - Podgorica - Bar, the second day train has been suspended.

Additionally, there are overnight connections to/from Nis, Skopje, Novi Sad that even carry through cars to Praha, Bratislava, Moskwa (that usually only run during the summer). No direct trains to Bulgaria.

Flo 8) [/quote]Hi Flo,

This Beogrede-Podgorica-Bar train dont stop in Nis? I mean, can i get this train in a Nis station and do the route Nis-Podgorica?
In alternative, some south city of Bosnia works for me. There are some station in south? This train Beograde-Podgorica makes a south route?

Best regards

No, Beograd - Podgorica is another route that does not cover Nis. Have a look at the map here :arr: [u]http://www.bueker.net/trainspotting/map.php?file=maps/serbia---montenegro/serbia---montenegro.gif[/u]
