The landmark of this place – The Red Star Train comes from the times of Hungary as part of the Soviet Regime. It reminds of the communist era in Hungary. This wonderful part of Hungarian history could be immortalized in a museum. We have heard that there were plans to make an exhibition in the Budapest Railway Museum. As far as we know, it has not happened.
An urban exploration there is a valuable history lesson, but here are a lot of gems for all railway enthusiasts. We mean The Magyar Államvasutak (MÁV) Steam Locomotives. The legendary Red Star Train is classified as MÁV-424. This amazing machine called also “The Buffalo” has two chimneys and a 2′D axle layout (4-8-0 in Whyte notation). You may also find here the engine from the MÁV-301 series, which was used between 1911 and 1914. The MÁV-324, used in World War I is present here as well. We could mention here more and more MÁV engines, but you have to see everything with your own eyes. If you are an urban explorer and the train-lover, you have to put this place on your urbex map.
