That´s great! I hope we can travel more by train than by bus in August - though the bus replacement between Gorna Orjahovica and Dimitrovgrad will probably not end till the middle of August. So we have to use it at least eastbound.

Yeh but thats like max 30 mins of bus + waiting time in the station. If u pay for first class in bucharest you wont be getting first class after the skip so might as well skip first class already from bucharest :)
