So now 24-26 of the current 56 trains will run next year (one pair only in summer) and 30 will be cut. Most of the ones to be cut are local lines and we have contacted local mayors to see if there is any interest on their side in saving these cross-border connections. I'll keep you updated. Thanks to all the people who've signed and spread the petition - although we've heard that some of the changes are most likely as a result of pressure from governments in the neighbouring countries, our petition has provided what was quite possibly the first sign ever that the general public in Croatia and other countries will actually notice if Croatian Railways cuts its train services, and I'm sure it has contributed to the decisions. Soon we will be coming up with some activities on the European level too, as the problem with cross-border lines seems to be very widespread. All the best, pippa -- ========================== Pippa Gallop Research Co-ordinator CEE Bankwatch Network http://www.bankwatch.org Skype: pippa.gallop c/o Zelena akcija Frankopanska 1 pp.952 10 000 Zagreb Hrvatska/Croatia ---------------------------- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "World Carfree Network" group.
