I caught the night train from Zagreb to Sarajevo. It was the most disgusting train trip I have ever taken. The picture advertising this train is grossley exaggerated. It was not a new train as pictured but a really old one.
The toilet bowl was half missing, no running water, no toilet paper and filthy and very smelly.
The lights didn’t work and the door on the compartment kept getting stuck so it was constantly a problem when the ticket guy or the immigration people tried to open it.
It was also very cold in the compartment. It really was a trip to forget. I would suggest you find an alternative to train travel between Zagreb and Sarajevo

I tried this route in July 2007 and although I wasn’t overly impressed, I must admit that the train’s quality wasn’t the main concern. En route the train changes locomotive twice - first entering RS and then the Federation. The same happened with the train staff. For some reason all of them had to check your ticket, especially when you’d just managed to nod off on those “chairs-turn-beds” (which, I might add, doesn’t work with the chairs by the windows since they’ve put dustbins there). Plus the immigration people. However, my trips back and forth on that train was quite memorable, especially as some Croats in the compartment next to mine decided to spend the whole way back from Sarajevo singing folk songs!
