Refurbished train coming into the Kőbánya-Kispest terminus
Line M3 (Officially: North-South Line, MetroM3, and unofficially: Blue Line) is the third and longest line of the Budapest Metro. It runs in a general north-south direction parallel to the Danube on the Pest side, roughly following Váci út south from Újpest to the city center, then following the route of Üllői út southeast to Kőbánya-Kispest. Its daily ridership is estimated at 500,000.[3] Like metro line M1, it does not serve Buda.
