Little History for all train lovers, this train tracks (called narrow tracks) started to be built in 1921, during Austro- Hungarian empire here in Serbia. It was supposed to connect cities in the mountain and beat elevation of 300m. Prisoners from this period started building tracks, and one of them was engineer, who was promised to be freed from life sentence if he finds solution. Unfortunately he didn’t, and he committed suicide. His colleague found the mistake in plan and fixed it and first train left ridded this track on 1925 🚂 the solution was to build tracks going in shape of number 8 long 2,7km with tunnels trough the mountain. There is a view point where 2 tunnels and tracks are visible creating illusion that there is 3 different tracks in one place.
