    EuroCity Sava: A Trip Back in Time from Ljubljana ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฎ to Zagreb ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡ท

    Excerpt

    As new trains transform Sloveniaโ€™s railways, only a few classic locomotive-hauled services remain -including the EuroCity Sava. This cross-border train offers a rare glimpse of old-style travel along the scenic Sava river. I boarded it this summer to experience the journey before it potentially changes for good.
