European Railroad Discussion > 10 Minutes in NagyszentjánosDate: 05/12/19 14:12 10 Minutes in Nagyszentjános Author: dwatry On Wed April 24 I was driving from Budapest to Bratislava to meet up with 86235 and stopped in Nagyszentjános, Hungary (near Gyor) for a quick break. I stopped at the MAV station, and saw that a green signal indicated a westbound soon so I grabbed my camera. Photographed the 3 trains below in about 10 minutes.
1) First up was a westbound pulled by a GySEV Siemens Vectron with MAV coaches. GySEV (Gyor-Sopron-Ebenfurthi Vasut) is a regional railroad in western Hungary and open acccess operator. Possibly a Budapest-Gyor or Budapest-Vienna train. 2) Next an eastbound with a MAV 470 class loco dual-voltage (Siemens), with GySEV coaches. 3) Third was a westbound intermodal freight with an ÖBB 1116 class dual-voltage Siemens loco. Same as MAV loco above. Walking back to my car 2 more trains came through, for a total of 5 in about 15 minutes.

Doesn't run anymore.
