Night train from Vác to Dresden
There currently is one option to travel by night train from Vác (Hungary) to Dresden (Germany), taking between approximately 10 and 11 hours: Namely the EN 40476. These lines are operated by ÖBB and MÁV-Start.
ÖBB
The Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) operate the Nightjet and Euronight trains (the latter together with other national railway agencies).
What types of carriages are available on ÖBB trains?
ÖBB night trains typically feature four types of carriages: seats, couchettes, the compact Mini Cabin, and sleepers.
What's the difference between seats, couchettes, Mini Cabins, and sleeper cars?
Seats are for the bravest, while couchettes, Mini Cabins, and sleepers provide a more comfortable journey. In the couchettes, you can find simple and rather narrow berths. The Mini Cabin is a compact sleeping option for solo travelers – two Mini Cabins can be combined for couples. Sleepers are equipped with proper beds and sometimes even a private bathroom. Couchettes can hold up to six people. The Mini Cabin is a private space for one person – two adjacent Mini Cabins can be connected for traveling together. Sleepers are private compartments for one to three people.
What amenities do sleeper cars offer?
Sleepers sometimes include a private bathroom or even a shower, sometimes only a sink. The Mini Cabin offers a more affordable private alternative with its own compact sleeping space for one person.
MÁV-Start
MÁV-Start, Hungary's national passenger railway, operates domestic and cross-border trains throughout the region.
