文化的背景

The 'HŽ' (Hrvatske željeznice) is a frequent subject of jokes due to its slowness. Traveling by train is seen as a test of patience. The Interrail pass is a rite of passage for many young Croatians, allowing them to 'putovati vlakom' across the continent cheaply. The book 'Vlak u snijegu' by Mato Lovrak is a cultural touchstone.

In Zagreb, the 'Glavni kolodvor' (Main Station) is a central meeting point, making 'putovati vlakom' a part of the city's social fabric.
