Introduction

This list is based on the ŽRS and ŽFBH website timetable details as displayed at December 2015. Standard abbreviations are explained in General Information.

Obscure services

Bihać - Martin Brod

(ERA1 100C3) BH16/1

This is part of the former through route from Novi Grad to Knin, now closed to all traffic south of Martin Brod. For the last 10 years an annual excursion organized by Bihać Rotary Club has run in late June from Bihać to Martin Brod. In 2013 this ran on 29 June. It was scheduled to run on 29 June 2014 for a music festival but it is not known if this happened. No information as yet for 2016

Doboj - Zenica

[BH16/2]

Doboj to Zenica is the only double-track line in Bosnia Hercegovina, apart from short stretches near to other major towns. At various places the northbound and southbound tracks follow different routes, particularly between Maglaj and Natron, between Tomići and Bradići, between Bradići and Globarica, north of Vinište and several kilometers south of Žepče. There are separate lines on both sides of the Bosna river between Jelina and Zenica, but all passenger trains use that on the east bank. The west bank line runs through Zenica steel works.

Other sparse services

The following lines have few trains (relative to service levels generally in this country) - fewer than three trains each way on at least three days a week - or do not run each weekday:

Konjic - Mostar - Čapljina
(Doboj -) Petrovo Novo - Bosanska Poljana - Tuzla
Novi Grad - Dobrljin - Volinja (Croatia)
Maglaj - Doboj
