📋 Tender Overview
Light train decorated Christmas carriages steam locomotive railway museum - these await passengers at the Childrens Railway during the remaining part of the winter break. The popular hiking spots in the Buda hills such as Normafa Janos Hill Hars Hill and Nagy-ret are easily accessible from the little railway stations so despite the cold weather it is worth going for a forest walk combined with a little train ride with the family.
Every year we prepare with decorated vehicles: the Christmas trains run every day until the end of the winter break: you can travel on these charming vehicles on every train. We recommend those heading to the Normafa area not to approach this area by car as the parking lots fill up quickly - it is worth leaving the car at the Childrens Railway Huvosvolgy or Szechenyihegy station and traveling from there by the small railway for example to the Viragvolgy station from where the popular Normafa areas can be reached in a few minutes walk. The Childrens Railway Szechenyihegy terminus can also be accessed by another popular vehicle the cogwheel train.
Until January 4 the weekend schedule is valid every day. Trains depart hourly from both terminuses from Huvosvolgy between 9:10 and 16:10 while from Szechenyihegy between 10:03 and 17:03. The light train departs from Huvosvolgy at 10 minutes past even hours and from Szechenyihegy at 3 minutes past odd hours. In addition to the traditional trains a nostalgia train with a steam locomotive will also operate on January 3 and 4 (and then every Saturday and Sunday in January). On January 1 Thursday the first trains will depart one hour later than usual at 10:10 from Huvosvolgy and at 11:03 from Szechenyihegy.
The schedule is available on the Childrens Railway website. The Childrens Railway museum in Huvosvolgy will also be open every day until the end of the winter break.
