Timetables

National railway and bus timetables (menetrend) are available at rail and bus stations, and regional versions can be bought at provincial offices. Tourinform offices have a set of timetables and staff will be glad to help with travel plans. For both train and bus services the summer timetable begins in early June and the winter timetable takes over from September. All times are in the 24-hour clock. If planning your trip from outside Hungary check the railway and bus company websites (see Appendix 4). The MÁV website has up-to-date timetables and prices in English, but the VOLÁN equivalent is in Hungarian, although it does provide an on-line Hungarian–English dictionary.

Every main railway station has a map of the national network and a timetable for every line, but a few rural railway halts do not have a booking office or timetable, so take a note of the return services before setting off. The national bus network is decentralised and its timetables show only the regional destinations and arrivals.
