Facts and practical information

Railway Main Workshop in Istvántelek was once one of the most important railway vehicle repair shops in Hungary. The main workshop in Istvántelek, Budapest IV. disctric is located in a part of the city district, occupying roughly half of the former. The former glory can only be imagined today, much of the halls have been demolished; what not, there the weeds proliferate. From the railway era, only the color of the motor car and the steam workshop remained. The Hungarian Railway History Park is located in the immediate vicinity of the area. Its steam locomotives are used to operate at this location. ()
