I am going to finish my summer bike trip in Vidin and flying from Sofia. I have already found the bus and train fares and times, both similar, although train is a bit slower. Anyway, I prefer it, but I am not sure I can bring my bike inside. Does anyone know?

[Bulgaria] Vidin-Sofia, bus or train?
We did this same train journey in September 2010
Price was great, scenery amazing, lots of space to move about and no problem for us to put fully loaded touring bikes on train. Think we might have paid a bit extra for bike but a fair price
We got onto train at SMALL STATION ABOUT 10 - 15 KM SOUTH OF VIDIN CITY CENTRE
THINK IT WAS CALLED DUNAVTSI - VERY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL STATION MASTER THERE
From Sofia main station was only 3 minute ride into city centre where we stayed in very friendly backpackers
great pub that makes own near within 200 metres of beautiful main cathedral - google it if you drink good beer
Try Skembe soup, most yummy if you like the inside of a cows stomach. Local wine is very good too. Pero el vino en La Rioja es mejor. Con pan y vino hecho el camino.
Enjoy lovely Bulgari and happy cycling
