The M61 001 is hauling a historic train on the rarely used Börgönd-Szabadbattyán railway
This railway was part of the original MÁV route from Börgönd to Tapolca on the Northern shore of the Lake Balaton built separately from the Budapest - Székesfehérvár railway that was managed by the Austrian Südbahngesselschaft. After World War II the Duna - Száva - Adria Railway, the successor of the Südbahn was taken over by MÁV and since that traffic uses the direct route. This stretch of railway was resurrected for the time of the reconstruction works on the Budapest - Székesfehérvár line and the rebuilding of Székesfehérvár station.
