High-tech country Hungary.

Directly none. But when I visited Scotland I changed flight in Amsterdam because the airplane landed in Edinburgh.

Do you know of any airlines that fly Budapest to Manchester firahun?

Our road system is crap, thats why there has been a big road building mania going on for years. But our railroad system is getting worse. :(

Apparently this is a Swiss train that Hungary has bought. You need trains as your road network is crap, so the site says....

Thats just simply not true but I wont start a debate about it. :)

This train is pretty comfotably. But there are only a few of these. 90% of the trains are old and dirty, but at least relatively cheap.

LOL twodogs....

What a great model! Little people, pretend electric lights, they've even painted people on the windows of the train in the background. Hard to believe it's all 1/24 scale.

looks better than Amtrak.

Ha ha, 5kph is barely a brisk walk.

Maybe they want the riders to enjoy the scenery.

This thing may be fast but it isn't allowed to go faster than 5kph on some bridges in Hungary.

My car is steam powered and so is my kettle!

Toot Toot! ;)

Still use steam in Bridgend???

I assume that Turner and Monet painted their locomotive masterpieces in the lush Hungarian hillsides.

No it wasn't, it was Jones the steam! More coal Jones! Come on Ivor! Pshtkunk Pshtkunk Pshtkunk Pshtkunk!! ;)

Englishman via Hungary more than likely. ;)

Thats some funny stuff from Bo, 'how long did they have to wait for someone to invent the track'. Not often I laugh like I just did. :-)

BTW, an Englishman called George Stevenson invented the train in 1822...

:) oddo

lol Bo! ;)

It is very fast once the Hungrians start peddling.

All by themselves? Bring on the New World Order right now. I don't want to wait until 2019!

See the way he spelled themselves, Sundin? He could be a Leaves fan! ;)

Me too, oddo. Especially around dinner time. ;)

How long did Hungary have to wait for someone else to invent the track?

I think i'd like to visit Hungary! :)

Congratulations on finally getting passenger trains. What's next on your world domination blueprint?
