The renovation of the extremely popular Zselici Csühögő, which has been operating for more than 120 years, will start in early 2022. - announced on the Mecsekerdő Zrt .
As you can read, only the Kemencei Erdei Múzeumvasút and the Almamelléki State Forest Railway operated by Mecsekerdő Zrt. operate on a 600 mm gauge of the light railways that also transport passengers in Hungary - the latter, the "Zselici Csühögő", celebrated its 120th "birthday" this year, in 2021. Significant freight was also carried on the line until the end of 1976. Located in the hills of Zselic in Southern Transdanubia, the more than a century-old railway track is now very outdated. In the first half of 2022, Mecsekerdő will renovate the main line track and its accessories, modernize the station building, build a new, but contemporary, covered waiting room with a wooden structure and create a new exhibition in the first half of 2022. On the renewed track, instead of the previous two, there will be three open railway passenger cars available to the traveling public.
