Amid the confusion and an intial pause in which the station ran no services at all, some domestic trains were allowed to leave platforms headed for towns not far from the Austrian and Slovakian borders.

But reports from Hungary suggest refugees were hauled off those trains at the first stop west of Budapest, amid a hardening of the rhetoric surrounding the crisis from the Hungarian government.

  1. Very insightful comment here at this Breitbart London post by commenter FoxtrotUniformCharlieKilo_Mo!

    1. Outraged because it is true. We certainly have some screwed up people these days and once again, bring back dueling and we will see a major improvement.
