The steam locomotive train rides organized by the Bulgarian State Railways (BDZ) on various occasions and holidays for lovers of old trains have become a tradition. The puffing train, which emits a lot of steam and smoke, and its sonorous whistle are exciting for both children and adults, claims Mila Mladenova, host of the Bulgarian National Radio program "Travel with Horizon".
Since its establishment in 1888, the Bulgarian State Railways (BDZ) has inherited a rich cultural and historical heritage of specialized trains for state and high-ranking officials. The carriages of the royal train "Corona Express" were intended for the official travels of Tsar Boris III and his family, and the government train "Vitosha Express" was the train of the leader of the Bulgarian Communist Party Todor Zhivkov.
During these trips, photography enthusiasts do not stop taking curious shots of the steam locomotives against the backdrop of beautiful landscapes. Some of the routes, such as the trip from Sofia to Bankya, are short yet picturesque. Another popular panoramic route is Sofia - Cherven Bryag - Lukovit. The retro experiences organized by the Bulgarian State Railways and some tour operators have become a real tourist hit lately.
