Hello
Is it possible to bring bikes by the train. We are planning a trip late july 2019.

Hi and welcome to railcc!

There are no luggage coaches or facilites to store bikes on the international trains from Belgrade to Bar. I would recommend to dismantle at least the front wheel of your bikes and store them in a luggage bag or large trash bags. That way you can try to store the bikes on the luggage racks inside the compartments.
On the Balkans you can also usually "store" bikes in the entrance platforms of the first or last coach. Maybe also have a little extra cash at hand for the conductor in case he is not happy with you taking your bikes on the train.
Anyway, it will work somehow. My uncle recently travelled by bike from Austria to Bulgaria and back and also never had real troubles getting his bike on a train in case he needed to travel some parts of the route by train.

Have a nice trip, it is a really beautiful railway line: [ux]https://rail.cc/blog/bar-belgrade-train-tito/[/ux]
