direct, single through-train, but routed via Brasov and Sighisoara rather than a short diagonal line -- a genuinely long journey by rail

  • Easy to get wrong

    This is a genuinely slow route on paper -- almost ten hours -- because the line runs via Brasov and Sighisoara in the south-east of Transylvania rather than a direct line; a traveller expecting a fast city-to-city hop should budget the full journey time or consider flying instead.
