Till the death of Josip Broz Tito in the May of 1980, Blue train was only used for the transport of the SFR Yugoslavia President, high official and political representatives and foreign statesmen. From his first departure on December 1946 till the end of his life, Tito traveled more than 600.000km on this train.

Decision about the manufacturing of these wagons was made in 1956. The manufacturers of the train were Wagon factory "GOŠA" in Smederevska Palanka and Wagon factory "Boris Kidrič" in Maribor.

Over 60 world statesmen traveled and negotiated on this train, and Tito used it for the travels in Austria, France, Poland, Hungary, Russia, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece… For the travel of the English Queen Elizabeth II over Yugoslavia, the train was specially redecorated in 1972.
