Hi
I\'d like to travel from Podgorica to Beograd at the beginning of July.
Bit confused as the only train on zcg Montenegro railways is a daily train (430) departing at 8:10am. Which is different to the only train on the DB and interrail websites which is the NT at 17:53 PM. Are they both correct and why aren\'t they on the other website?
I\'d rather the day train but just wanted to be sure it was correct before committing as its not on the Interrail website?
Thanks for any help anyone can give me.
Peace & love Joseph :)

Hi Joseph and welcome to railcc!
In such cases you can usually rely on the information of the local railway company (and/or the experts here at railcc). ;)
The schedule planners used by Interrail, DB (such as our adaption [ux]http://plan.rail.cc/[/ux]) all use the same timetable database called "HAFAS". The timings for different countries in the database are supplied by the different railway companies and not all of them submit changes instantly; this usually only happens on a weekly (at best) or monthly basis.
At the moment there is only the day train from Bar via Podgorica to Belgrade operating; a replacement bus service is in operation between Lajkovac and Belgrade due to construction works along the tracks. See [ux]https://rail.cc/en/belgrad-bar-night-train-suspended/n24[/ux]
This is the train departing from Podgorica at 08:10.
The night train is suspended until further notice, however an extra train will be running from June 16, using a different route in Serbia: [ux]https://rail.cc/en/interrail-night-train/bar-belgrade-b432/146[/ux]
The full service on that route, including the summer season extra trains currently is scheduled to resume on July 15: [ux]https://rail.cc/en/summer-night-trains-montenegro-2017/n30[/ux]
