Re: Study visit on the Pioneers' Railway (4.00 / 2)

Did a quick search on "kinderspoorweg" (childrenrailroad).
Seems our tourist offices know about it, especially Budapest's as shown in this link:

There's a long description (only in Dutch), more interesting for you I suppose are the numurous pictures.

Wikipedia gives one long page in Dutch only, with surprisingly detailed information. There are no pictures and no links (except to Gorki Park, Moscou), looks like a draft.

The first link takes the image from and leads further to the Budapest Childrens' Railway's own Dutch-language page :-) Beyond Hungarian, English and Dutch, they were ambitioned enough to have pages in German, Russian, Spanish, and, curiously, Danish.
