Yugoslav Railways (Croatian: Jugoslavenske željeznice; Serbian: Jugoslovenske železnice, Југословенске железнице; Macedonian: Југословенски железници, romanized: Jugoslovenski železnici; Slovene: Jugoslovanske železnice), with standard acronym (ЈЖ in Cyrillic), was the state railway company of Yugoslavia, operational from the 1920s to the 1990s, with its final incarnation transferring to Serbia. The successor of JŽ is the joint stock company of the Serbian Railways in 2006.
