One hundred and twenty passengers boarded the train in the dark and freezing cold at the Kosovo Polje station yesterday morning for the journey north to Lesak. This morning's train broke down within view of the Zvecan station. Passengers had to walk 500 metres to the station and made their own way to their destinations. The drivers of the train are also KFOR soldiers from the Italian Railway Engineer Company. There is still much work to be done to restore the Kosovo Polje station to its former glory.
Bitter winds blow into the dark, unheated hall through the open spaces where glass doors once stood.
Snow and rubbish tarnish the platforms and places where passengers and friends should gather in comfort. Italian Military Police in Dakovica made several arrests yesterday. Three men were charged with attempted murder of an Albanian man who suffered stab wounds. As well, four Albanian men were apprehended in Dakovica and charged for their involvement in a grenade attack on an Albanian shop. No further information is available pending the outcome of the investigation.
