Eurogate Rail Hungary, formerly Floyd Zrt, is a Hungarian private railway company founded in 2004 by Andras Bogdan. Its headquarters are in Budapest. Rolling stock is usually black with the name of the company written on a pink stripe. The vehicles were therefore given the nickname Pink Floyd.

The company mainly deals with the transit and transport of goods, with daily services to the Budapest Intermodal Logistics Center and Hamburg. In October 2008, Eurogate purchased a 51% shareholding and ICE Transport another 23%, with Andras Bogdan retaining 26%.[1] In January 2022, Floyd Zrt was renamed Eurogate Rail Hungary.[2]
