Keleti railway station’s 140th anniversary to be marked with host of special programmes
State-owned railway company MAV is marking the 140th anniversary of the opening of Budapest's Keleti station on Friday with a host of programmes that include film screenings and an exhibition.
Children will get to take part in a scavenger hunt, while adults will be invited to a guided tour, MAV said on Tuesday.
Also, a short story and photo exhibition presenting the station’s history will open in the late afternoon, and visitors will get to board party-carriages.
MAV will also hold a screening of the comedy The Stationmaster Meets His Match as well as short films produced specifically for the anniversary.
