Photos: Lovely Advent happenings at the Hungarian Children’s Railway

This year, the lightshow returns to the Hungarian Children’s Railway!

By now, it’s become a regular tradition to make the carriages shine at the Children’s Railway. This year, the carriages will be joined by some new additions as well!

True winter spirit at the Children’s Railway!

This year, visitors can experience the true Christmas spirit. Thanks to the heavy snowing recently in Hungary, the region has transformed into a winter wonderland. Perfect time for some outdoor exploring, or even better, enjoying the view from one of the nicely decorated carriages of the Children’s Railway.

The Children’s Railway operates throughout the whole year, including winter. During the school term, it runs every day with the exception of Mondays. Through the winter vacation, trains go out more frequently, operating with weekend hours. This means there’s a train going out every hour, which is lucky for visitors waiting out in the cold. Of course, on 24th December and 1st January, there are fewer services. Still, the Children’s Railway is open and has prepared some exciting features for guests, writes Impress Magazine.

Let the light show begin!

The carriages of the railway will be lit up from the start of December for the whole of the winter vacation. This year is special, since compared to last year there will be some surprising new additions to the illuminated section of carriages, writes Impress magazine.Three of the usual winter carriages will be transformed into a light show for the season. Added to this, the steaming new addition to the fleet of the Children’s Railway, introduced only last year, the ‘Debrecen’ carriage is also lit up, contributing to the winter wonderland. However, the season wouldn’t be whole without a proper light train, that’s why they decorated an Mk45 diesel locomotive too, making the whole set matching in holiday spirit.
