This link between the Székesfehérvár and Sárbogárd lines provides an alternative to the Budapest - Székesfehérvár line via Erd alsó. Doubling of the latter route, completed in September 2013, has relieved the pathing pressures previously experienced, nevertheless this link is still used, both by an hourly local service between Kőbánya-Kispest and Székesfehérvár, and by a few other trains (those that have a timing or | marking at Érd felső). It should be noted that punctuality can affect the route taken by non-stop trains.

The following conflicts with a train in the opposite direction have been identified and 5510 from timings should take the longer route via Rendező, but a complication in 2017 is 5500 & 547 now take identical minutes to/from Maklár. Therefore which one takes which route is unknown so '''clarification would be appreciated by the Compilers'''.


The following services conflict with a train the opposite direction and take an additional 3 minutes between Maklár/Andornaktálya and Eger, so presumably take this route.

Obscure services

In the heading to each entry, the map reference for the line in the European Railway Atlas 2016 published by M.G. Ball is shown.

Celldőmőlk avoiding line: Külsővat (Vinár elágazás) – Boba (Celldömölk-Rendezö)

[10, 25] (ERA 96C2) HU17/2

This east <=> south curve avoiding Celldőmőlk is used by one summer dated train pair.

E 19809 Győr - 09:00 Pápa - Keszthely
E 19808 Keszthely - 19:51 Boba – Győr

Boba avoiding line: Kemenespálfa (Jánosháza elágazás) – Kerta (Kerta elágazás)

[20, 25] (ERA 96C2) HU17/3

This south <=> east curve avoiding Boba is used by the following services:

IC958 Budapest Deli - 19:25 Ajka - Zalaegerszeg
IC959 Zalaegerszeg – 06:07 Jánosháza - Budapest-Déli
D SuO IC1951 17:16 Zalaegerszeg - Budapest Deli

Érd felső (Érd elágazás) – Tárnok

[30a] (ERA 99C4) HU17/4

This link between the Székesfehérvár and Sárbogárd lines provides an alternative to the Budapest - Székesfehérvár line via Erd alsó. Doubling of the latter route, completed in September 2013, has relieved the pathing pressures previously experienced, nevertheless this link is still used, both by an hourly local service between Kőbánya-Kispest and Székesfehérvár, and by a few other trains (those that have a timing or | marking at Érd felső). It should be noted that punctuality can affect the route taken by non-stop trains.

Kőbánya felső - Rákos (via low level tracks)

[30, 80a] (ERA 99C4-5) HU17/5

This route from the south side of Kőbánya felső station to the north side of Rákos station via the low level lines was used last year by a summer dated train pair between Miskolc and the Lake Balaton area. The same train pair runs this year, but does not call at Kőbánya felső, so it is not clear whether the train takes this route. Confirmation of the route would be welcomed by the compilers

E 15607 Miskolc Tiszai - 08:53 Gödöllő - Keszthely
E Note 1 15606 Keszthely - 18:20 Budapest Kelenfold – Miskolc Tiszai

Note 1: This train is omitted from table 30, but appears in 80a arriving at Gödöllő at 19.02 so the 2016 timing at Kelenfold is shown

Budapest-Ferencváros - Kőbánya felső

[30, 80a] (ERA 99C4) HU17/6

This east - west route avoiding Budapest Keleti is used by one summer dated train pair between Miskolc and the Lake Balaton area.

E 15607 Miskolc Tiszai - 08:53 Gödöllő - Keszthely
E Note 1 15606 Keszthely - 18:20 Budapest Kelenfold – Miskolc Tiszai

Note 1: This train is omitted from table 30, but appears in 80a arriving at Gödöllő at 19.02 so the 2016 timing at Kelenfold is shown

Dombóvár avoiding line: Dombóvár alsó – Kaposszekcsős (Dombóvár elágazás)

[40, 41] (ERA 97B3) HU17/7

This west <=> south curve is used by trains between Kaposvár and Pécs which do not call at Dombóvár. The platforms at Dombóvár alsó are on the curve so trains which start/terminate/reverse here do not connect with the line towards Kaposvár.

Eger-Rendező: Eger-Rendező elágazás – Eger-Rendező – Eger

[87a] (ERA 98B2) HU17/11

The single line approaching Eger from the south splits significantly to serve a substantial goods yard [Rendező] and also gives bi-directional alternative routes of around 2 km for arrivals and departures. Click on the thumbnail for a full size diagram.


The following conflicts with a train in the opposite direction have been identified and 5510 from timings should take the longer route via Rendező, but a complication in 2017 is 5500 & 547 now take identical minutes to/from Maklár. Therefore which one takes which route is unknown so clarification would be appreciated by the Compilers.
