Introduction

This list is based on the timetable in force from 13 December 2020 until 10 July 2021. Standard abbreviations are explained in General Information.

Map references for each route entry are given in parentheses ( ). References prefixed "ERA-E" refer to the European Railway Atlas (All-Europe Edition) by M.G. Ball. References prefixed "ERA-R" refer to the European Railway Atlas (Regional Series - The Balkans) by M.G. Ball.

SŽ no longer publish a full paper timetable and the online pdfs do not use the same timetable numbers, instead numbering them 1 to 18. The on-line timetable numbers are therefore used in the entries below.

Other sparse services

The following lines have few trains (relative to service levels generally in this country) - fewer than four trains each way on at least three days a week. Note that the on-line Slovenian timetable pdfs no longer show the former timetable numbers, but are instead numbered 1 to 18.

5 Metlika - Rosalnice - Bubnjarci (Croatia) There is a limited SŽ service between Metlika and Rosalnice, and a limited cross-border HŽ service between Metlika and Bubnjarci (- Karlovac). The Karlovac trains do not call at Rosalnice.
7 Ilirska Bistrica - Šapjane (HR) - Rijeka (HR)
10 Prevalje - Bleiburg (Austria)
11 Središče - Macinec (Croatia)
11 Mursko Središće (Croatia) - Lendava
12 Ormoz - Hodoš - Bajánsenye [MAV]
13 Rogatec - Sveti Rok ob Sotli - Hromec (Croatia)
15 Prešnica - Rakitovec - Buzet[HŽ]

At weekends, most lines have a very restricted local service, or none at all. This particularly affects the following lines, which have few or no long-distance trains:

4 Ljubljana - Novo Mesto - Metlika
6 Sevnica - Trebnje
8 Ljubljana - Kamnik Graben
10 Maribor - Prevalje - Bleiburg (Austria)
