A stickered locomotive promotes the animated series Toldi, which can be seen on Duna Television from September 19. Miklós Toldi is the personification of strength and endurance, national pride, so it is important that the MÁV group can also display his image - said Róbert Homolya, MÁV's president and CEO, at the press presentation of the stickered locomotive on Monday in Budapest.
Róbert Homolya said: Toldi's news will be carried in Hungary and abroad with stickered TRAXX locomotives, thus contributing to the popularization of the film, commemorating János Arany and Marcell Jankovics.
The locomotive will cover twenty-five thousand kilometers per month from Budapest via Szombathely and Győr to Szolnok, Békéscsaba, Miskolc and Sátoraljaújhely, and will also travel to Romania
added Róbert Homolya. Dániel Papp, CEO of the Media Service Support and Wealth Management Fund (MTVA), emphasized that Toldi is a milestone in the history of Hungarian public media. He added: This was Jankovics Marcell's last job.
The thirteen-part production was made with a unique, hand-drawn technique in connection with the János Arany commemoration year in the framework of the MTVA's tender, with the support provided by the Ministry of Human Resources in the workshop of Kecskemétfilm Kft. The TV series consists of a prologue and twelve episodes in accordance with the structure of the Golden Epic. Jankovics Marcell's (1941–2021) last direction can be seen by Duna Televízíó audiences for the first time from September 19
