Train travel in Albania: train schedules, fares & other useful info


albania_train
National Train Service:

Albanian Railways (HSh) are not offering a variety of different train types, so when traveling in Albania by train it is possible to meet just one type of train - ordinary "trenit"

Due to various reasons rail network & passenger rail service in Albania are quite limited and passenger service is "alive" only on a some major lines & routes (from Tirana to Durres, Tirana to Shkoder, Tirana to Vlore via Rrogozhine etc.), but at the same time taking a train in Albania is very cheap since HSh ticket fares are very low and inexpensive compared to other European countries

 

 

 

Since it is a bit difficult to find train schedules for trains in Albania, we publish here current (updated May 2013) Albanian Railway (HSh) timetables:

            Trains on line DURRES-TIRANE-DURRES

(also note that trains Tirana-Elbasan-Tirana & Tirana-Librazhd-Tirana as well pass via Durres)
