Budapest Nyugati pályaudvar (Hungarian for Budapest Western railway station) is a railway station in the northern part of the Budapest City. It is one of the three main railway stations of Budapest (together with Keleti pu and Déli pu) and can be found in the 6th district. The station was planned by August de Serres and was built by the Eiffel Company. It was opened on October 28, 1877. Previously another station stood in its place, the end station of Hungary's first railway line, the Pest-Vác line (constructed in 1846). This building was pulled down in order to construct the Nagykörút - Grand Boulevard which is now smaller than the outer ringroad (Hungária körút - Hungary Boulevard) and the recently opened express ringroad M0 (2008).
