Getting around by
train is a
little slower than other modes of transport, but much more
comfortable. In
Bosnia and Herzegovina, trains are punctual and low-cost.
Before the war
the rail network connected most Bosnian cities. This has changed
dramatically. There are now only three routes that originate in
Sarajevo:
the Sarajevo-Zenica-Banja Luka-Zagreb route takes about ten
hours from
start to finish; the northern route to Budapest goes via
Doboj; and the
southern route towards the Adriatic coast is Konjic-Jablanica-
Mostar-Capljina-Ploce (Ploce is in Croatia). This last route
goes through
the Neretva Canyon and is particularly scenic.
