Soroksári út marshalling yard (M44 418)
On the line no. 150 from Budapest to Kelebia the first station after the great marshalling yard Ferencváros is Soroksári út. It only has four tracks, merely more than a stop on the line (and one of the ugliest overpasses ever designed with an elevator built in but never functioning) but there connect the tracks of the marshalling yard. Freightcars for the factories on the Csepel island on the Danube arrive here, where they are marshalled and the shunters take them in to the industrial zone. It was built for a lot higher volumen as you can see from the number of empty tracks.
