Railway Operators in Serbia

 ZS (SV/SKG) - Zeleznice Srbije

Network length, gauge and electrification (2021):

The country of Yugoslavia had lost much of its territory (becoming the independent states of Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia-Hercegovina, FYROM/Macedonia and Montenegro) before what was left was renamed in Serbia. ZS operated both passengers and freight trains in the country. The railway network is very run-down, with many speed restrictions, even long stretches of 20km/h. Sticking to the timetable is complicated, such that long-distance trains can easily have delays of an hour or more.

Restructuring of the company in 2015 created four businesses: ŽS Holding, Infrastruktura ŽS which is responsible for managing the 3735km network, Srbija Voz (SV) which is responsible for passenger operations, and freight operator Srbija Kargo (SKG).
