The sequel to the Beograd-Thessaloniki line! Why are there so few trains? The new electric trains are beautiful. But they were bought by China. The design looks oriental. The landscape is characteristic along the Vardar river but the stations and the neglect of the line, the sidewalks and the stations reflect the social reality of a poor country. Too bad! You can really see the difference between Slovenia and North Macedonia. Once upon a time it was Yugoslavia.... but with big differences. Overall, the line is beautiful as always. Few people and few trains, but perhaps there is also a lack of money to travel. Beyond the Gevgelija station, a single-track line serving freight traffic begins in Greece from Idomeni to Thessaloniki. It would be nice to do a cabride on the new Greek high-speed line Thessaloniki-Athens, recently doubled and re-electrified. Thanks David!
@wladislaw79 Thank you, Wladislaw. A the time I was in North Macedonia, there were not many train operating. I hope it will get better. It would be very nice to get back the old connections between the North and the South of Europe.
I have a request to you to film the railway route Skopje-Pristina (North Macedonia-Kosovo), I deleted the previous comment because I formulated it incorrectly.
@@ВиталийЦеликов-о4н i think international services from Skopje to Pristina havent run since at least 2020... there was one train but that was really it.
Še enkrat najlepša hvala za zanimivo vožnjo s taksijem v zanimivi pokrajini v državi, ki mi ni znana. Najlepša hvala za vaše delo in nalaganje. Pozdravljeni Ljubljani
The name Macedonia derives from the Greek Μακεδονία (Makedonía), a kingdom (later, region) named after the ancient Macedonians, from the Greek Μακεδόνες (Makedones), 'Macedonians', explained as having originally meant either 'the tall ones' or 'highlanders'. Do Slavs from NORTH MACEDONIA know the origin of the word "Macedonia"? It is GREEK.
Hallo Ich bedanke mich wieder für das sehr Interessante Video und es ist macht einen schon sehr traurig, wenn man entlang der Strecke noch die ganzen Kriegszerstörungen sieht, das man erst was ihr alles erleiden musstet und ich bin froh das bei uns in Deutschland die 😊Wende 1989 / 1990 unblutig und ohne Krieg über die Bühne gegangen ist Schöne Grüße von Rüdiger Ziemer
@@ZvonimirZelenika I completely agree with you, but it would be nice if the author of the Rail Relaxation channel filmed the railway lines of Greece, Turkey, Albania, Bulgaria and other Balkan countries.
You should really edit the video before posting to turn the horn down. It's a shock when you listen to a pleasent rubmling and then a total explosion. Not good.
@montgomeryscott1656 It was very interesting for me too. For the first time on that railway line. It would be even better if we could get all the way to Thessaloniki. Who knows, in the future they will establish the connection again.
Ни тебе определять где и что мне комментировать Делить людей по национальностям в зависимости от благожелательности комментария- это проявления национализма и фашизма.. И я не русский - я украинец. Показывать нищету и разруху- это садомазохизм.
Calling North Macedonia just Macedonia is meaningless because there is no country with the name Macedonia. In the same way there is no country with the name Africa. It is meaningless to call South Africa just Africa. South Africans NEVER call their country Africa because it is meaningless.
Nice journey !!!🥸
@sellier-bellot22 Thanks.
moogo hvala
@alandarbo264 drago mi je, da vam se svidalo.

Nice video
@adamblunsdon7784 Thanks.
@@RailRelaxation your welcome
It was very interesting to watch this video, I hope your railway trips to the Balkan countries will not end👍
@user-sj3xz6vx3h I will have to go back to film more in the spring or in the summer...
@@RailRelaxation Well, I will be waiting for your new videos from the Balkan countries at any time of the year.
I have a request to you to film the railway route Skopje-Pristina (North Macedonia-Kosovo), I deleted the previous comment because I formulated it incorrectly.
@user-sj3xz6vx3h at the moment I was there there were no trains to Pristina. If or when I will be there next time, will see what I can do.
@@RailRelaxation I understood well, maybe you should try to search for train schedules in Kosovo and Northern Macedonia on the Internet.

@Stas1661 😊
Will there be more videos from Macedonia?
@MarkoMKD259 for the moment I have one more from Macedonia...going from Veles to Bitola. It will be published soon.
When is veles-bitola coming? @@RailRelaxation

Nice! What other routes have you filmed in Macedonia? Did you do the one to the Serbian border?
@CFRTrainSpotter I just did one more, from Veles to Bitola.
@@RailRelaxation Cool! Waiting for the rest for the next time, since i recall you wanna visit Macedonia again.
😊
Veles to Bitola beautiful line ❤❤❤@@RailRelaxation
Excellent shot, Like😀
@user-gk8gg1zt7l Thanks.
I have just realized how sparsely these regions of East Europe are inhabited. Have these lines been rebuilt by China National Railways Company?
@GiuseppeMichieli Sorry, I do not have this information.

Finally spring has arrived, there is no more snow to disturb the green natural scenery around the train journey😊
Not really. Balkans doesn't look great in Winter. 😁
But this line will look great in Spring, so there is a reason to go back.
@ZvonimirZelenika 😊

Thank you for the video!
@Mako2401 My pleasure!
Super Video 🤩👍🙂😉. Wann wirst du mal von Rom nach Pisa fahren?
@user-re6jv2km1l thanks. I am not sure. Will definitely do more lines in Italy this year.
Aber unser RailRelaxation war schon unterwegs von Roma nach Pisa:

Calling North Macedonia just Macedonia is meaningless because there is no country with the name Macedonia. In the same way there is no country with the name Africa. It is meaningless to call South Africa just Africa. South Africans NEVER call their country Africa because it is meaningless.
Of course it is. Like calling USA America.
When people say Macedonia, 99,99% of the time they refer to 🇲🇰
@@alaviaro3501 Yes, and it is ambiguous to call the USA America. America is the whole continent, not just the USA.
