**RARE** MÁV M62 “Sergej” Running Day | S21 Budapest Nyugati – Lajosmizse 27-09-2025

🔥 RARE CLASSIC DIESEL IN FULL PASSENGER SERVICE 🔥
Experience an increasingly rare sight on the Hungarian network as MÁV M62 “Sergej” takes over a full S21 stopping service from Budapest Nyugati to Lajosmizse, calling at every intermediate station.

Filmed in September, this video captures the raw sound, exhaust, and presence of the legendary Soviet-built M62 diesel locomotive, a class once synonymous with mainline passenger and freight operations across Hungary and Eastern Europe. Seeing one return to intensive suburban passenger duty is a standout event for railfans and historians alike.

The Budapest Nyugati – Lajosmizse line offers the perfect setting, combining:
• Busy suburban commuter operation
• Traditional station stops
• Open countryside running
• Authentic, real-world passenger working

This is not a static display or short charter run — this is a heritage locomotive doing a full day’s work, exactly as it was designed to do.

🎥 What you’ll see in this video:
. M62's from Czech and Hungary on service!
• All-stations S21 passenger service
• Line-side run-pasts and station scenes
• Classic diesel sound, smoke, and acceleration
• Everyday railway life along the route

For fans of classic diesel locomotives, Hungarian railways, Eastern European traction, and operational railway heritage, this is essential viewing.
