Going to Ljubljana from Zagreb by train soon. The Seat61 describes the ride:

There are several trains every day linking Zagreb & Ljubljana, journey time 2h28. It's a lovely scenic train ride through the hills along the beautiful River Sava.

Is there a side of train that affords better views?

Some scenic routes I've been on in other contents are only scenic from one side as the train might follow the base of a cliff. Some passengers see a rock wall the whole way and others see valleys, rivers, towns, etc

I did that train ride a few years ago and remember sitting on the right side of the train. The River was on the right side for most of the time as well.

We were in a compartment and we could always go outside to stand in the corridor to look out on the left side as well. I don't remember it being a very narrow valley, so I think you have some views on both sides.

Also I don't think the whole two and a half hours were super special.

Edit: I just realized you are going from Zagreb to Ljubljana, I went the other way, so in that case sit on the left side of the train.
