Budapest Elektromos Művek Rt. Kőtéri Alállomás - Budapest Elektromos Művek Rt. Kőtéri Alállomás

"In order to transfer and receive energy, the Kárpát utca station of Budapest Székesfőváros (B.Sz.EM - ELMŰ) was built next to Kõtéri (Kárpát utca 30-32.) And the BSZKR joined the cooperation with the Révész utca power plant for the third time. power take-off from Bánhida began on June 24, 1930, through a temporary facility, after the Carpathian Street substation was put into operation only in 1931. From that time on, the Révész Street power plant was used to a lesser and lesser extent, mostly only as a reserve. A 1933 BSZKRt. According to the report, only 6.5% of the company's total electricity consumption was produced in the Révész power generator, the rest was purchased from Magyar Dunántúli Villamos Rt. The correctness of the reserved power plant is recalled in the contemporary yearbook of BSzKRT: "Our caution proved to be a correct foresight, because due to the difficulties of the start, the power supply of the Bánhida power plant was interrupted several times at first and caused more or less malfunctions. In the winter cold, he paralyzed the capital's trams for hours on Christmas Sunday. The cause of this serious disruption was that the transmission line at the Banhida power plant was severed under the weight of the hoarfrost due to almost unprecedented high frost formation in Central Europe. " In 1935, the siding was still the BSZKRt. was in texture. Its length at that time was 271 m, the number of detours: 4. In December 1939, the industrial estate was taken over by the Budapest Power Plant, and the industrial track was bypassed by the BSZKR. It was presumably performed by MÁV in the future. In later tram drawings, the track connection in Kő tér was sometimes not depicted. In 1955, the Budapest Tramway (FVV) negotiated to take over the service of the industrial tracks connected to the Vizafogó station. The plans also included taking over the servicing of the Révész Street site of the Budapest Power Plant - with a Kőtér transition. However, the initiative was not supported by the Ministry of Transport and Posts (KPM) and could not be implemented. The track connection between the tram and the railway existed until 1970, when it was dismantled by BKV. The following two map excerpts show the state of the 1960s. In the 1970s, much of the surrounding factories and industrial sites ceased to exist, and the number of sidings declined. Large-scale housing construction began in the area. The former left-hand railway traction track south of the Dráva Street line was closed with the connecting industrial tracks, the tram crossing was demolished in 1976. The boilers of the Révész Street power plant were replaced in the first half of the 1970s by gas boilers that did not require rail transport. The siding may have ceased to exist permanently during this period
