Change language:
In Hungary, the railway network is quite extensive, you can travel to every corner of the country. However, some railways are more problematic than others. Read our article and have a look at the most problematic railways of Hugary!
Hvg.hu has collected the railways with the most issues. To compare them, they gave points for delays. However, difficulties due to accidents were not taken into account.
The most problematic railways
The Budapest-Záhony line, ranked first in both 2020 and 2021, topped the list on January 1 and remained there throughout. The second place goes to the Budapest-Újszász-Szolnok-Békéscsaba-Lőkösháza line. In 2021, the Lőkösháza line came second, but while the Záhony line won 264.5-168.5 then, this time the final result was 223.5-209. This means that this time, there were much fewer problems on the Záhony line than last year. As for the third place, the Budapest-Hatvan-Miskolc-Sátoraljaújhely line was the third most problematic.
Top ten
As a new line, the Szeged-Békéscsaba line between Szeged and Hódmezővásárhely was established, it changed the list. It entered the top 10 and knocked out the Székesfehérvár-Szombathely railway line.
