Narrow-gauge Railways In Bosnia And Herzegovina
Most Bosnian-gauge railway lines were built during the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Several gauge railways were planned in order to link the extensive narrow-gauge railways in the Austro-Hungarian Empire with those in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Until the outbreak of the Balkan Wars in 1912 several were constructed. Between World War I and World War II the network was extended significantly, at the end connecting the Adriatic Coast with Belgrade, with the network growing to around 1500 km in length. Construction of a new standard-gauge line from Sarajevo to Ploče on the Adriatic in 1966 replaced the Narentabahn (Neretva, Narenta railway) from Sarajevo to the coast and had the effect of isolating the south-western narrow-gauge system from the railways starting at Sarajevo. With the demise of a connecting network all the other remaining narrow-gauge lines were then at risk and restricted to local traffic. The system based on the Adriatic closed in 1975. By 1979 the rest of the B ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

One agency is in charge of whole country statistics (the BHAS), while the other two oversee statistics in BiH's constituent entities, the Republika Srpska and Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, The Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
