I've been trying to plan a trip to Zagreb using the sleeper from Stuttgart but neither the trainline or OBB seems to be able to sell me a ticket - does anyone know what's going on with it?

Indeed, currently not bookable. This is usually caused by engineering works being planned, which ÖBB also explain on the page they link to:

Availability can be very strange on these Euronight services. On the date you're looking at the Stuttgart to Budapest portion of the same train is on sale, but not the Zagreb portion. I have also known occasions where inevitable intermediate stations are not on sale but terminals are. Other than using a travel agent (as I have known them to have yet a different set of availability) I have nothing to offer beyond keep trying!

Thanks both, will keep checking! Oddly trainline doesn't seem to offer any availability for this service at all, but OBB does on other dates.

What Trainline offer or don't offer is not relevant. ÖBB (or maybe also HŽPP?) manage the reservations so they're the best source.

I am still trying to book this train, albeit now on 25 nov and only as far as Ljubljana. Does anyone have any intel on what is happening with it?

The train the following day is running and bookable, but the day after it is being diverted and there's a bus/train combo to get to Ljubljana.

My entire itinerary from the UK depends on this one train so not knowing whether or not it is running is quite frustrating!
