4K CABVIEW Bogojevo - Sombor - Subotica -- breakdown railroad crossings (from RS/HR to RS/HU border)

The Subotica - Bogojevo - Erdut (HR) is one of branch lines of main railway corridor between Novi Sad and Subotica in northern Serbia. It connects two significant northern Bačka cities, Sombor and Subotica. That line is also a railway connection between Serbia and Croatia and is one of the two railway connections between these two countries. This line is served by several passenger trains. There are a few freight trains, mostly direct trains in transit between Croatia and Vojvodina, as well as between Croatia and Hungary.

Railway stations, station tracks, rail buildings, signalling and other infrastructure along the line date from the Austro-Hungarian period. There are a lot of industrial buildings, industrial tracks and the former goods freight operations along the railway. Today, this huge industry is not used, it does not serve the purpose and most of the railway stations are neglected. Along the line, after Subotica, the largest station is Sombor which is a small railway junction for several directions.

Due to frequent alienation, failures and destructions of railway signaling equipment, there are a large number of unsafed railroad level crossings along the line. In front of each breakdown railroad crossing the train stops and carefully crosses it. This prolongs the travel time and makes the train ride much more dynamic and unsafe. The track infrastructure allows a maximum speed of 80km/h, but because of the poor track switches condition the ride is done with limited speeds of 20km/h and 30km/h through all stations.

The recording was done from a diesel motor unit passenger train, Serbian Railways series 711.
The cabride is done under the beautiful clouds of the sunny sky, in the middle of July 2020.
