About

The Belgrade Centre Railway Station (Serbian: Железничка станица Београд Центар, romanized: Železnička stanica Beograd Centar), colloquially known as Prokop (Serbian Cyrillic: Прокоп), is the new central railway station in Belgrade, Serbia. The station is located in the Belgrade municipality of Savski Venac. Although unfinished, it serves as de facto main railway station of the city, after replacing the old main station at the Belgrade Waterfront. The unsuccessful, decades-long attempted construction of the new central railway station of Belgrade was hampered by a lack of funding to finish the adjoining 14 km of tunnels, several railway bridges including the New Railroad Bridge across the Sava river, a new road network connecting to the city and technical installations. Construction of the new station faced countless setbacks over a period of several decades. The entire construction process has been described as infamous, with deadlines being missed one after another. Belgrade Centre station was opened on 26 January 2016, serving two daily trains to Novi Sad, as well as BG Voz, Belgrade's commuter railways. Following gradual re-routing, it gained its current role on 1 July 2018. Today, the station links Belgrade to Vršac, Sremska Mitrovica, Šid, Valjevo, Požega, Užice, Niš, the Montenegrin cities of Podgorica and Bar, as well as Novi Sad via a high-speed intercity route and other cities. It is also served by the primary variations of BG Voz's lines 1 and 3.
