Not the most problematic railroad surprise
According to MávInform news, a compiled by hvg.hu. the most problematic railways 2021 instructions.
The order was drawn up according to specific rules: the lengths of the delays, the omission of one pair of trains were calculated on the basis of different assessments, and no accidents or extreme weather conditions were taken into account. However, there were points of concern over the heat and snow: the fact that it is snowing in winter and warm in summer should not be considered an extreme weather situation, they wrote.
The signs of the lines were taken from the official classification of MÁV, ie, for example, a monor failure belongs to the Budapest – Záhony line, not to the Cegléd – Szeged line. If MÁV prints the error on more than one line, they are all included.
One of the findings is that while in 2020 a total of 721.5 points were awarded for the whole year, by 2021, recalculated, 1807, ie there were one or more failures, delays, or more, Mávinform reported. There may have been more people traveling (there were fewer home offices), so there were more trains last year than in the first year of the epidemic.
The most problematic is the Budapest-Záhony line, it was only one month of the whole year, when the most problems were not there: the winner of June was the Budapest-Miskolc-Sátoraljaújhely line.
Budapest-Cegléd-Debrecen-Záhony: 264.5
Budapest-Újszász-Békéscsaba-Lőkösháza: 168.5
Budapest-Hatvan-Miskolc-Sátoraljaújhely: 165
Budapest-Győr-Rajka: 109.5
Budapest-Székesfehérvár-Gyékényes: 109
Budapest-Pusztaszabolcs-Pécs: 99.5
Budapest-Vác-Szob: 95
Budapest-Lajosmizse-Kecskemét: 74.5
Székesfehérvár-Szombathely: 52.5
Rákos-Piliscsaba: 49
The portal notes that there was a change in the top 10: the Budapest-Esztergom railway was dropped (in fact, it is now only the 20th) and replaced by the Rákos-Piliscsaba line. In 2020, it couldn’t be among the worst because traffic only started there in October of that year. This line, if it works well, is a very important part of the suburban transport in Budapest, it is a good idea to get from the Esztergom line not only to the West, but also to East Pest. Of course, this means that whether there is a problem around Rákos or towards Piliscsaba, there will be a delay.
