U-Bahn, S-Bahn & Tram in Budapest

The Hungarian capital offers urban rail enthusiasts a remarkable variety of transport modes, ranging from the classic tramway to four different metro lines (including the oldest underground railway on the European continent as well as a driverless line) and several local railways extending into the surrounding area, up to regional trains with modern rolling stock. In addition, there is a funicular, a cog railway, and the Budapest Children's Railway. Trolleybus fans will also find plenty to enjoy in Budapest. In this bilingual book, Robert Schwandl presents every means of urban rail transport, providing a brief overview of the respective history of each system and the vehicles used. At the end of the book, readers will find detailed maps in the form of an atlas of the entire region.
