Volán
Volán companies were Hungarian public bus transport companies. Each Hungarian county had its own local Volán company (some counties more than one). They operated in that form between 1985 and 2015.
Centralization, round 1
In 2015, 6 regional companies replaced the 23 local companies. At that time, websites of the original companies with quite a lot of information (news, timetables, public procurement documents, photo and video galleries) would be discontinued. User:bzc6p archived some of them.

| volanbusz.hu | Originally it operated in the capital and also run interurban coaches. Now it's the website of countrywide public bus transportation | Online | Original lost, current not saved yet |
| volanegyesules.hu | Organization of bus transport and related companies. Seems to be active. | Online | Not saved yet |
| volan.hu | Was linked from old Volán companies, now it seems to be losing its role of center of countrywide applicable information. For the other parts of the site, volanegyesules.hu seems to be its successor. Maybe the whole site will be useless one day. Especially that it is obsolete (both style and information) and broken. What's more, it utilizes robots.txt. Seems unupdated since 2014. Update: Main page redirected to volanegyesules.hu as of 2016-10-12. As of 2016-12-26, subpages still in place, however. As of 2020-08-18, it redirects to menetrendek.hu timetable search site. |
