This week started with the visit of the students from the Department of Machine and Product Design at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics in the Technical Study Stores.
The Hungarian Museum of Science, Technology and Transport saved a special Ikarus bus type again. Our newest piece is the uniquely designed Ikarus 438.K1.
We had the pleasure to welcome the representatives of the 15 successful Hungarian and world-renowned international architects participating in the design contest of the new Hungarian Museum of Transport at the Northern Maintenance Depot in Kőbánya.

A new exhibition in the Ábrahám Ganz Foundry Collectio, from the 26th of october!
In May 2017, the Government made a decision concerning the future of the Hungarian Museum of Science, Technology and Transport, and the revision of the previous concept.
A new bus was added to the collection of the Hungarian Museum of Transport: an Ikarus 311 has been purchased.
Our most recent temporary exhibition opened on the 26th October in the Ábrahám Ganz Foundry Collection.
The site visits in October offered an opportunity for the participants of the international design contest to take a look at the Northern Maintenance Depot, the future home of the Hungarian Museum of Transport. We asked them about their opinion.
After more than 30 years, a new tram was added to the collection of the museum: an FVV CSM–4 – called the „Bengalian” - has arrived from Szeged.
The pre-qualification phase of the design competition for the new Hungarian Museum of Transport has ended. Besides the previously invited eleven architects, four more applicants were given the opportunity to participate in the contest. The design competition for this large-scale cultural development in the area of the Northern Maintenance Depot in Budapest has attracted a great deal of interest worldwide, with 90 valid applications.
