dagrizz Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I did a Interail holiday in 1980, one country visited was Hungary where I saw the occasional steam loco at work. I don't remember where these first four shots were taken. This next loco though was at Balatonszentgyorgy, it was pottering around the yard while our train was awaiting departure. And one diesel, location unknown. Graham 11 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonBoulton Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Thanks for sharing Graham, very interesting. Do you have any more pics of Hungarian diesels too? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagrizz Posted September 7, 2020 Author Share Posted September 7, 2020 Sorry, no. I didn't take very many train photos as I was slightly concerned about the security aspect in 1980. On one journey, me and my mate were fiddling with cameras and a chap sitting opposite pointed at our cameras, waggled his fingers, shook his head and said 'Russkies'. A minute later, we passed a Russian army camp. I was a little nervous taking the shots at Balatonszentgyorgy as there was a Hungarian soldier across the aisle, but he didn't bat an eyelid. I do have four rather average shots taken inside Budapest Keleti (I think) station. Graham 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
