This is also a test for 100% image resizing. Is it alright, or does it blow up some screens?

It blew my screen, but that is OK. I was just checking the website before going to bed and needed something to refresh me as I am planning to study in bed (it never works out, but I keep trying though). And it is always nice to see a piece of your own country on the front page:) I can't tell you much about the trains in Bulgaria, I never use them, but as far as I remember they are sort of antiques and they really stink.

It blew my screen as well. But the picture's great.

BDZ can be good and bad. I love taking the overnight train from Sofia to Istanbul. Bring some food, some beer & wine, and get several places in the sleeper car. A late party, sleep some, get out of the train at the Turkish border at about 2:00 in the morning, go back to sleep, and wake up in the center of Istanbul. The sleepers are clean and conductors are good guys.

Yes, that's actually very true. However, during winter time you would be playing something like Russian "freeze"ette as it sometimes happen that the heating does not work. The conductors will bring extra blankets but then the party is ruined :) But I must admit, it is one hell of a fun ride.

Oh, guys, believe me...BDZ can only be bad! I had been travelling every day for five years from my home town to the capital (the distance is approximately 40 kilometres). In the winter it is either too cold or so hot that you can't breathe. You usually couldn't get a seat because it was too crowded... Furthermore, there are all those people that never buy tickets and are constantly bribing the conductors...I just hated that!
