From Split To Zagreb

These pictures document the route between Split and Zagreb.

Note.

  • It would certainly be a better line to travel on in better weather.
  • Extensive work is progressing to improve the track.
  • There were piles of discarded wooden sleepers everywhere, which were only good for firewood.
  • In some ways the operation of the line was old-fashioned, as the station-master would greet each train as it passed through, even without stopping.
  • The line was a mass of curves, as the train bent one way and then the other.
  • The line is single-track most of the way.
  • It was actually quite crowded, but I was the only passenger in First for all of the journey.
  • There was no buffet open.
  • The last picture shows the impressive Zagreb station.

Incidentally, I’ve just found out that there was a bad crash on this line at Rodine in 2009.

I would certainly travel on the line in the future. But next time, I’ll take some water and a snack.

  1. I made this journey by car, but the train ride looks like a great option, too 👍

    • Choose better weather than I did, pack some snacks and travel in First!
