  • Thank you to the driver/engineer of this iconic 1960's GM designed, NOHAB diesel locomotive for allowing me to mount a camera in the cab to record this video so that we can all enjoy the wonderful views normally reserved for the train crew.
    With a surface area of nearly 600 km², Balaton is the largest lake in Central Europe and one of Hungary's main tourist destinations, particularly in summer, with many popular resorts along its shores, including Siófok, Balatonfüred and Keszthely. The favourable microclimate around the lake has helped the area to become an important wine producing region.
    The railways around Lake Balaton have received significant EU funding as can be seen in the first half of this video where the track has been upgraded, with overhead electrification introduced as far as Balatonfüred reducing the journey time to Budapest by up to 20 min, with the elimination of the need to change locomotives at Székesfehérvár. To learn more about these upgrades, please click on either of these links - www.railjourna... www.railwaygaz...
    Please sit back and enjoy the pretty towns, villages and countryside as our train makes its way along the North side of the lake to Tapolca.
    The railway beyond Balatonfüred has not been modernised and electrified, although it is due to be upgraded in the near future. This video will become a historical record of how the line looked before electrification and station improvements to bring platform heights up to modern day standards.

    Ładny przejazd wzdłuż Balatonu Tim.
    Niestety praktycznie wcale nie widać jeziora. Gdzieś chowa się za drzewami. Trasa kolejowa z drugiej strony jeziora pokazuje jednak więcej.
    Dobrze, że w tej części nie padał deszcz. Niezła stara lokomotywa się trafiła. Zapewne był to przejazd specjalny, turystyczny.
    Pozdrowienia z Polski ✌️

      Witam, miło słyszeć głosy z Polski.
      Szkoda, że ​​jezioro schowano za drzewami, chociaż w części 3, dostępnej w najbliższy weekend, nie brakuje wyraźnych widoków na jezioro. Był to specjalny pociąg turystyczny składający się z zabytkowej lokomotywy spalinowej i trzech starych wagonów. Ucieszyłem się, że przestało padać. Pozdrowienia z Anglii.

    I liked the video very much. I have been on trains on this route as back as 1985 so to see the wires now, makes me sad. I do understand MAV to upgrade the line though. But if you want to go to Tapolca, MAV still needs to change the loco at Balatonfüred. It just less miles of diesel and more of electric traction now. I do hope the wires does not reach Tapolca and destroy the free views of trains there

    I needed to know why they couldn’t dig a tunnel and do an extension for most of the mainline Trains so that they could extend the unused abandoned underground train stations. Why couldn’t they use the part D78 Stock train doors on the sides and also restructure the front face of the A60 and A62 stock which will include the class 507, class 508, class 313, class 314 and class 315 remix and make them all together and also redesign all of them into an overhead wire line trains and also make most of them into Five carriages per units and also having three Disabled Toilets on those Five cars per units A60 and A62 stock trains and also convert the A60 and A62 stock trains into a Gardner 6LXC, Cummins M11, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner LG1200 and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Engines and also put the Loud 8-Speed Voith Gearboxes even Loud 10-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Gearboxes in the A60 and A62 stock, class 507, class 508, class 313, class 314, and class 315 and also modernise the A60 and A62 stock and make it into 11 carriages per unit so it could have fewer doors, more tables, computers and mobile phone chargers? A Stock Train and 8 Disabled Toilets on those A stock trains. why couldn’t we refurbish and modernise the waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel and make it even much more Larger and extend it to the bank station, making it into a Triple-Track Railway Line so those Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden to convert the waterloo and city line Triple-Track Railway tunnel into a High-Speed Railway lines? The Third Euro tunnel Triple-Track Railway line to make it 11 times better for passengers so they could go from A to B. Then put the modernised 11 carriages per unit A Stock and put them on a bigger modernised Waterloo and city line Triple-Track train tunnel so it could go to bank station to those Five countries such as Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. The modernised refurbished 11 carriages per unit A stock could be a High Speed The Third Triple-Track Euro Tunnel Train So it is promising and 47 times a lot more possible to do this kind of project if that will be OK for London Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden. oh by the way, could they also tunnel the Triple-Track Railway Line so it will stop from Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex so that the Passengers will go to Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland and Sweden and also extend the Triple-Track Railway Line from the Bank to Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and Essex Stations so that more people from there could go to Australia, Germany, Italy, Poland And Sweden more Easily. Why couldn't they extend the Piccadilly Line and also build brand-new underground train stations so it could go even further right up to Clapton, Wood Street can they also make another brand new underground train station in Chingford and could they extend the Piccadilly Line and the DLR right up to Chingford? All of the classes 150, 155, 154, 117, 114, 105, and 106, will be replaced by all of the Gardner 6LXC, Cummins M11, Volvo B10M, Gardner 6LXB, Gardner LG1200 and Gardner 8LXB Diesel Five carriages three disabled toilets are air conditioning trains including Highams Park for extended roots which is the Piccadilly line and the DLR trains. Could you also convert all of the 1973 stock trains into an air-conditioned maximum speed 78 km/hours (48 MPH) re-refurbished and make it into a 8 cars per unit if that will be alright, and also extend all of the Piccadilly train stations to make more space for all of the extended 8 car per unit 1973 stock air condition trains and can you also build another Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive Companies and can they order Every 87 Octagon and Every 48 Hexagon shape LNER diagram unique small no.13 and unique small no.11 Boilers from those Countries such as Greece, Italy, Poland, and Sweden, can they make Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive speeds by up to 147MPH so you can try and test it on the Original Mainline so it will be much more safer for the Passengers to enjoy the 147MPH speed Limit only for HS2 and Channel Tunnel mainline services, if they needed 16 Carriages Per units, can they use those class 55’s, class 44’s, class 40’s and class 43HST Diesel Locomotive’s right at the Back of those 18 Carriages Per Units so they can take over at the Back to let those Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s have a rest for those interesting Journeys Please!!!!!!, oh can you make all of those 18 Tonne Boxes of Coal for all of those 147MPH Mayflower and Tornado Steam Locomotive’s so the Companies will Understand us PASSENGER’S!!!! So please make sure that the Builders can do as they are told!!!!!!!! And PLEASE do something about these very very important Professional ideas Please?
