Biking through the Balkans really has its ups and downs. Now we are just one day from our destination of Sarajevo. Itβs been one hell of a ride and watching autumn turn the Bosnian countryside has been immense. Now some months in Bosnia before we decide what next.
Is this in Sarajevo (Dolac Malta)? I have people debating or believing it is in Russia instead, and that it's '80's Soviet architecture - and not Yugoslavian ...but I swear this pic was taken from the snowstorm of 2012...

What is the condition of the Bosnian Talgo trains from Sarajevo to Bosanska Otoka?
I have been planning a trip with my friends to Sarajevo but we are also interested to see the beautiful river Una. So we wanted to take the train from Sarajevo to Bosanska Otoka. Are the trains in good condition? Especially the sleeping cabins are they clean? Is there food on the trains?
Thanks for the help in advance!

Hello Bosnians! Do any of you know of the band Pauk? They recorded an album in Sarajevo back in 82 and Iβve been looking for info about them, but I canβt seem to find any. I figured maybe a Bosnian would know about a Bosnian band.

TIL Bruce Dickinson (lead singer of the heavy metal band Iron Maiden) and his then-solo band drove through the front lines of war in Sarajevo during the Bosnian war.

In the Bosnian War, were Bosnian Governement forces (OSBiH) able to get in and out of Sarajevo during the siege? If so, were they able to leave "normally" or did they have to sneak out?
Since Republika Srpska's forces were surrounding Sarajevo from high vantage points during the siege, I was wondering if BiH forces were able to be sent to the city as reinforcements or forces from the city were able to be sent as reinforcements elsewhere, or if the Serb forces made transport of BiH troops to and from the city impossible. If troops were able to be sent to or from the city, did they have to do it under cover of nightfall or some other method of camouflage?
Thank you in advance to anyone who is able to answer this question or direct me to resources that could help me find this information.
