The international trains traveling between Bulgaria and Greece will be canceled on September 14 because of a 24-hour strike in Greece on this day.

The train from Bucharest to Thessaloniki will travel only to Sofia. There, passengers who want to go to Kulata will be transferred to a train with two second-class wagons.

Due to the strike, the two morning and the two afternoon international trains, traveling from Sofia to Thessaloniki, will be canceled on Tuesday.

Bulgaria's state railway company BDZ has announced that they will refund the money of all the passenger who had already bought tickets for the canceled trains to Greece.

Over the past few months the Sofia-Thessaloniki trains have seen their schedule changed numerous times because of strikes in debt-ridden Greece.

In 2010, these occurred on September 8-9, July 8, June 29, May 19, May 3, and March 10.
