Description: Locomotive cabride from the biggest marshalling station in the Balkans, through the Belgrade Main railway station, to the Belgrade Dunav station. This ride takes place through a very complex Belgrade Railway Junction, across many stations, junctions and separating lines. An important part of the railway lines passes through the central parts of Belgrade. A particularly interesting part is non-electrified railway line through the pedestrian, coastal zones of the city, along the river Danube and around the Kalemegdan fortress. The recording was done using a diesel locomotive, which was tracted a long and heavy freight train from Belgrade to Pancevo. This is EMD G16 diesel locomotive built by General Motors in the USA, on the Serbian Railways series 661 known under the nickname Kennedy. It's really nice to see a freight train passing through the central parts of the city, and for a large number of tourists this is a real attraction. This can be seen in this video, as a large number of people are waiting for the train to record its passing. Unfortunately, this is the last time that this railway line and central city train tracks was recorded in this part of Belgrade. Totally wrong transport policy of the country resulted in the closure of this city railway line and remaining train tracks will be demolished soon. The same destiny happened to Belgrade Main railway station. This is one of the main reasons why this video was recorded. Date of recording: June 2018.
