Owing to engineering work on the direct route table 500 between Sofia and Pernik, a limited number of already diverted services also use this 10 km freight line by-passing Pernik between 25 May and 8 August 2015. A recent traveler advises train 360 from Thessaloniki towards Sofia should be one of them and 5623 southbound is not, but as the BDZ website has numerous temporary timetables for the period, full details of others are not known. Those services diverted but not using this line travel to Pernik-Razpredelit to reverse via the new north to east curve.
Trains from Sofia to Pernik via Razmenna have been diverted between Razmenna and Pernik to take a new north to east curve and run to Pernik-Razpredelit where they reverse to proceed to Pernik. Trains from Pernik to Sofia via Razmenna also take this route.
Trains using the new curve are as follows:
Daily from Sofia  R60201 (departs 07:15) and R60203 (departs 17:58
Daily from Pernik R60202 (departs 05:22) and R60204 (departs 17:50)
