Railway traffic between Budapest and Vienna changes significantly in August
Due to maintenance works, the Austrian state railways will modify railway traffic between Budapest and Vienna between 12 and 31 August.
According to portfolio.hu, the timetable of the trains commuting between the two astonishing Central European capitals will change considerably. The reason is that the Austrian state railways decided to carry out some scheduled railway maintenance in the second half of this month.
Based on a statement of Mávinform, most trains will depart towards Vienna earlier than now and they will come back from the Austrian capital later. Moreover, their route will be shorter. The changes will affect the timetable of some domestic trains as well.
Railjets connecting Budapest and Vienna will depart from Budapest-Kelenföld railway station. They will begin their journey half an hour earlier. Furthermore, the Kálmán Imre EuroNight train will depart half an hour earlier at 8.10 PM from Keleti railway station.
Railjets and Kálmán Imre EuroNight coming from Vienna will depart from the Austrian capital thirty minutes later than their current timetable. Furthermore, their final stop will be Budapest-Kelenföld instead of the Budapest-Déli or Budapest-Keleti railway stations.
Changes during the weekends
Between 13 and 15 August and 19 and 21 August, the Railjet from Vienna will depart 1 hour earlier, while the Kálmán Imre EuroNight will begin its journey 1.5 hours later. You may find further details about the changes in THIS article, but unfortunately, it is only available in Hungarian.
We wrote HERE about a new railway development program János Lázár, the minister for transport and construction, submitted to the government lately. However, the project is a ten-year-long one so it will not affect the aforementioned timetable changes. The program is much needed: we wrote HERE that the MÁV-Volán group has admitted the railway company’s rolling stock and tracks are ageing and the air conditioning is not working. Experts say a change of mindset is easy and will pay for itself in 15-30 years.
