A west to south curve avoiding Divača. The train pair from Jesenice to Koper and v.v. that used this curve in summer 2011 did not run in the 2011-2012 timetable and does not run in the 2012-2013 timetable.
Other sparse services
The following lines have few trains (relative to service levels generally in this country) - fewer than four trains each way on at least three days a week:
34 | Prevalje - Bleiburg (Austria) [2 return journeys SSuX] |
61 | Hrpelje-Kozina - Buzet (Croatia) [1 return journey daily in summer only] |
72 | Prvačina - Ajdovščina [2 return journeys on schooldays only] |
At weekends, most lines have a very restricted local service, or none at all. This particularly affects the following lines, which have few or no long-distance trains:
21 | Ljubljana - Kamnik Graben |
31 | Celje - Velenje |
32 / 33 | Grobelno - Stranje - Imeno / Sveti Rok ob Sotli |
34 | Maribor - Prevalje |
40 / 41 | Pragersko - Ormož - Središče / Hodoš |
70 | Sežana - Nova Gorica |
80 | Ljubljana - Novo mesto - Metlika |
81 | Sevnica - Trebnje |
Deletions since last edition
The Sežana - Villa Opicina (Italy) line lost its passenger service ( one train pair) at the end of the 2010/2011 timetable, so is no longer a sparse service.
