The Western Railway Station


This is Budapest’s first railway station. It was designed by August de Serres and built by the Eiffel company. It opened in 1877. It provides connection to tram 4 and 6 on the Boulevard, including access to Buda via Margit Bridge.

The busiest line in the country leads to Szolnok. Trains are usually crowded with people, who go to work day to day. When I go to school, my route always includes the Western Railway Station, where I could take these photos of the station, trains and the people who are commuters just like me.
