At GySEV, they are now used almost exclusively for such freight transport tasks. This is a completely realistic and classic railway operation scenario: at GySEV CARGO, these veteran, 40-60 years old V43 &quot;Szili&quot; locomotives still play a major role to this day when more modern traction capacities are fully tied up in InterCity traffic.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/philippedaniele/">philippedaniele</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/philippedaniele/55527333736/" title="Budapest Nocturne : pont Rákóczi"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55527333736_59c993894a_m.jpg" width="240" height="108" alt="Budapest Nocturne : pont Rákóczi" /></a></p> <p>🇫🇷 Le pont Rákóczi est un ouvrage moderne enjambant le Danube à Budapest, reliant les quartiers de Ferencváros (Pest) et Lágymányos (Buda).

It is situated south of the city centre, downstream from the Petőfi Bridge, and serves as a major route for road traffic, trams and pedestrians between the two banks. The bridge was designed in the early 1990s to cope with the increase in traffic between Buda and Pest. It was built between 1992 and 1995; originally named Lágymányosi híd, it was renamed Rákóczi híd in honour of François II Rákóczi, a Hungarian nobleman and historical figure in the resistance against the Habsburgs in the 18th century.<br /> <br /> 🇩🇪 Die Rákóczi-Brücke ist ein modernes Bauwerk über die Donau in Budapest, das die Stadtteile Ferencváros (Pest) und Lágymányos (Buda) miteinander verbindet. Sie befindet sich südlich des Stadtzentrums, stromabwärts der Petőfi-Brücke, und ist eine wichtige Verkehrsachse für den Straßenverkehr, die Straßenbahn und Fußgänger zwischen den beiden Ufern. Die Brücke wurde Anfang der 1990er Jahre entworfen, um dem zunehmenden Verkehr zwischen Buda und Pest gerecht zu werden. Sie wurde zwischen 1992 und 1995 erbaut und von „Lágymányosi híd“ in „Rákóczi híd“ umbenannt, zu Ehren von François II.

Il ponte è stato progettato all’inizio degli anni ’90 per far fronte all’aumento del traffico tra Buda e Pest. È stato costruito tra il 1992 e il 1995; il nome Lágymányosi híd è stato poi cambiato in Rákóczi híd in omaggio a Francesco II Rákóczi, nobile ungherese e figura storica della resistenza contro gli Asburgo nel XVIII secolo.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/philippedaniele/">philippedaniele</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/philippedaniele/55526315402/" title="Budapest nocturne en bateau &lt; &gt; Le Pont Petőfi"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55526315402_5ca3956fe4_m.jpg" width="240" height="108" alt="Budapest nocturne en bateau &lt; &gt; Le Pont Petőfi" /></a></p> <p>🇫🇷 Le Pont Petőfi, pont à poutres en acier vert long de 514 m sur 25,6 m, relie Pest et Buda et traverse le Danube; construit 1933-37, détruit 1945 puis reconstruit 1950-1952, renommé en l’honneur du poète Sándor Petőfi et symbole de reconstruction culturelle, avec deux travées principales de 154 m et un rôle clé dans le développement urbain et les vues sur le Danube et les deux côtés de Budapest.<br /> <br /> 🇬🇧 The Petőfi Bridge, a green steel-girder bridge 514 metres long and 25.6 metres wide, links Pest and Buda and spans the Danube; built between 1933 and 1937, destroyed in 1945 and then rebuilt between 1950 and 1952, renamed in honour of the poet Sándor Petőfi and a symbol of cultural reconstruction, with two main spans of 154 metres and playing a key role in urban development and the views of the Danube and both sides of Budapest.<br /> <br /> 🇩🇪 Die Petőfi-Brücke, eine 514 m lange und 25,6 m breite Stahlträgerbrücke in grüner Farbe, verbindet Pest und Buda und überspannt die Donau; erbaut 1933–1937, 1945 zerstört und anschließend 1950–1952 wieder aufgebaut, zu Ehren des Dichters Sándor Petőfi umbenannt und Symbol des kulturellen Wiederaufbaus, mit zwei Hauptfeldern von je 154 m Länge und einer Schlüsselrolle für die Stadtentwicklung sowie den Ausblick auf die Donau und beide Seiten Budapests.<br /> <br /> 🇪🇸 El puente Petőfi, un puente de vigas de acero de color verde con una longitud de 514 m y una anchura de 25,6 m, une Pest y Buda y cruza el Danubio; construido entre 1933 y 1937, destruido en 1945 y reconstruido entre 1950 y 1952, rebautizado en honor al poeta Sándor Petőfi y símbolo de la reconstrucción cultural, con dos vanos principales de 154 m y un papel clave en el desarrollo urbano y en las vistas del Danubio y de ambas orillas de Budapest.<br /> <br /> 🇮🇹 Il Ponte Petőfi, un ponte con travi in acciaio verde lungo 514 m e largo 25,6 m, collega Pest e Buda e attraversa il Danubio; costruito tra il 1933 e il 1937, distrutto nel 1945 e poi ricostruito tra il 1950 e il 1952, ribattezzato in onore del poeta Sándor Petőfi e simbolo della ricostruzione culturale, con due campate principali di 154 m e un ruolo chiave nello sviluppo urbano e nella vista sul Danubio e sulle due sponde di Budapest.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/brusse/">Brian Aslak</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/brusse/55535637116/" title="Belvárosi plébániatemplom 2005"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55535637116_1463be1b01_m.jpg" width="160" height="240" alt="Belvárosi plébániatemplom 2005" /></a></p> <p>Inner City Parish Church in Budapest, taken in 2005</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/brusse/">Brian Aslak</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/brusse/55535637131/" title="Iparművészeti Múzeum 2005"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55535637131_cf355e7484_m.jpg" width="240" height="160" alt="Iparművészeti Múzeum 2005" /></a></p> <p>Museum of Applied Arts in Budapest, taken in 2005</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/doctorow/">gruntzooki</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/doctorow/55535575244/" title="Miniature statue 2, Retro Museum, Budapest, Hungary"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55535575244_7b071f786f_m.jpg" width="180" height="240" alt="Miniature statue 2, Retro Museum, Budapest, Hungary" /></a></p>
