After 134 years of its operation, Belgrade Main railway station is closed. The last day of train departures and arrivals was June 30, 2018.
The completely wrong traffic policy of the country has led to the removal of the railway from the city center of Belgrade. Today passenger trains are departing from station Belgrade Center (Prokop). The new railway station is not entirely built and it is located outside the city center and thus without the possibility of easy access.
In this clip, many recordings were made during the month of June. The work of the locomotive turntable, at locomotive depot Belgrade is also shown. There are also recordings made during the several cabview rides of old Belgrade railway junction. These recordings will be shown in its entirety in a new clips.
On June 15, 2018, the last train from Belgrade to Bar departured from the Main Railway Station in Belgrade. The last commercial train dispatched from this station is train 340 from Belgrade to Budapest, at 21:40, June 30, 2018. The departures of the last trains are emotionally accompanied with the song: "A sad adio".
