Revfulop, Keszthely, & train hell at Lake Balaton
... lake. Now, the Hungarian train system is….let’s say…challenging! It’s probably how it used to be in England in the 1950s! All the timetables are printed on paper and stuck to the walls of the station, they just list the destination station and not the stations which the train calls at (so you have to know what your train’s ultimate destination is or you are screwed), there are no TV screens or any technology in use ...
