Isn‘t this Normal? Because DB also has this system with the seat map.

ČD trains also have it idk whoch one Railjet is better but i think that ÖBB becouse it have better seat configuration in business class and first class have more seats so

DB Stations are mostly clean, but only the major ones. The small stations are often the dirtiest

CLEANEST ? dirty, old, slow trains

@@mariacristinaciampi3069 ÖBB? Dirty? Old?

@@that1niceguy246 not all of them and they are under renovation but until last year some train connecting Germany/Austria to Italy were

Wait for Stuttgart 21 to be finished ;-)

It's a nice station for sure, but it's not without its flaws. For example, the access to the subway station (U1) is a fairly long walk from the platforms. Unnecessarily long, if you ask me, which could have been avoided with better planning. I'm saying this because a lot of commuters have to switch from regional trains to the subway there.

Pacat ca noi nu avem asa ceva

@@FrostyAUT its not that long just 2 or 3 minutes of walking

@@FrostyAUT Compared to other international stations the walk to the subway is still comparatively short. And there wasn't really a way to get much closer to it without completely rebuilding the subway station. What Wien Hauptbahnhof lacks most IMHO is a dedicated area for local traffic. The two platforms of the "Stammstrecke" (the main urban line that crosses the city) Nr. 1&2 are separate from the other platforms 3-12, which sometimes causes confusion because you now have regional trains in the same direction leaving at different places. Again, platforms 1&2 are just previously existing platforms from the old Südbahnhof station... The original plan was to build a completely new set of 4-6 underground platforms for local traffic, and another 6-8 above ground dedicated to intercity and international trains, which would actually have reduced the footprint of the station (or left place for future expansion), at basically no additional cost (the foundations had to be buildt anyways). Unfortunately this plan was ditched in favor of a parking garage (which I would have located in the old Stammstrecke-tunnel after the new station was finished).

as someone who used to live in linz and now lives in wels and my mom used to work as a cleaner for the station years back i can say that the trains and the station itself are really clean i always go back to visit the city or just my friends its really nice to be on one!

I visited Linz 3 years ago, it's really nice even if there's not particularly much to do there

Between there and Freilassing if I remember correctly. Me and my friend jumped off in Freilassing and "walked" into Austria!

@@jamesrobinson9194 nobody cares mate

@@rubenvo3627 no one cares if you reply with no one cares,

Papa Schlumpf. Yes I know it well as I have German relatives who live in Rosenheim, Bavaria, Germany and I have traveled many times to Salzburg and Wien

@@rubenvo3627 Seems like the only one who doesn't us you who's liked your own comment.

I only did that two times, Vienna-Zurich, but at that time they didn't have these new trains yet... and I also didn't go to the restaurant car unfortunately. The other times I took the night train, Zurich-Vienna is a quite perfect distance for that imo (but again, at that point it wasn't even NightJet yet)

Interessant aber es kommt auf den Abfahrtsbahnhof an und es ist ja auch ein Österreichischer Zug und kein Deutscher. Wenn man in München zusteigt ist es was anderen weil man gar kein Business Ticket kaufen kann. Normal dürfen nur die dort sitzen die vor Deutschland gekauft haben, regulär würde es abgesperrt werden aber macht man eben nicht

@@folkerseebacher1978 Für 15 € Zuzahlung kann man mit einem 1. Klasse Ticket dort sitzen. Es wird aber erst ab Salzburg von den österreichischen Zugbegleitern kassiert. Der Preis ist aber unabhängig von der Streckenlänge

@@folkerseebacher1978 Nein, wenn du im DB Navigator die Strecke nachguckst, siehst du, dass die Verbindung durch ÖBB und DB betrieben wird. Das heißt zwischen Salzburg und München usw. ist es ein deutscher Zug. Man wird selbst noch einmal kontrolliert.

@@llp1364 echt und das ÖBB steht nur zum Spaß drauf? Österreichische Bundesbahnen

@@folkerseebacher1978 Ja, weil das Wagenmaterial von den ÖBB kommt.

That's really unacceptable for a first class seat. They should have turned that seat into more luggage space or a self-service area.

@@ministerievanstudiecollege5788 I agree.

You’re right

What number was this seat so nobody on here books it accidently ?

All of BR class 800 have first class seats without window, shame...

Yes I know this train and it look stunning. I'll review this one for sure.

@@SimplyRailway your hobby is train ?

@Tomáš Palíšek i wants ask you you like train ?

Tomáš Palíšek in Germany

@@SimplyRailwayUnfortunately you no longer can, they have been pulled from service.

Thank you dude :)

There would be no place to put it. The top level of the station is all tracks and platforms.

Milano Centrale offers this feature.

@@bastianmann4936, on a terminus station like in Milan you can place the lounge at the front side, so the passengers can view the whole hall. In a through-station like in Vienna this is not possible.

Well, on the ÖBB Eurocity the Dining Cars are a little bit nicer, try it if you can!

the Desiro is a crap box for a comuter train,the doors are to small ,no space for standing in the aisle cause they're to narrow, the seats are for child sice humans only or for legamputee's, and a fellow Train Operator which I know (there are no engineers on modern trains in Austria) said that these things are a safetyhazzard ,because on a EMR break it took way to long to come to a stand still because the breaks are to weak. The best comuter besides the old 4020 wich laggs of A/C, handycaped equipment and a good thermic and sound isolation (keep in mind this type was desinged in late 70's) is the Talent 2 although it swings like a rockingchair.

@@dark_one1337 Welp you wont see the Talent 2 on the ÖBB tracks tho. The only talents that the ÖBB has is the origial which is used for suburban travel and sometimes regional trains and the Talent 3 which mostly gets used in Tirol. But I gotta say. I also actually had a good experince on my first time on the Desiro when i was visiting a friend. it was a pretty nice disel MU same with the Cityjet Desiro ml. But my favourite train will forever be the ÖBB 4020 and ÖBB 5047.

@@dark_one1337 If the seats and doors are too small for you maybe consider a diet.

@@dark_one1337 how can anyone praise the old 4020 crap, I can't get it. The Desiro ML Cityjet is good and very comfortable, just not suitable for Vienna S-Bahn lines. And of course it's not a Flirt. But it does his job on Carinthia, Styria & Salzburg regional lines very well.

@@markoobid2005 The Desiros are doing a fine job in Vienna. Entrance and exit are fast thanks to being low-floor, acceleration is fast, AC usually works, etc. Overall, I'm glad they're steadily replacing the 4020s which I was never a fan of.

I've never seen a train here have ski places. It wouldn't even make sense to have them because most people go skiing by car and big ski places are far off from trains anyway

@@Ivan-it9wx Nope. In St. Anton you could literally step from train onto ski lift, at least until 2004, when the train station was rebuilt at the opposite side of the village. In Schruns in Austria it is also only a 200m trip.

More and more Austrians are no longer interested in skiing any more and do not have their own equipment. It is easier and cheaper to travel to the skiing vacation and rent there.

@@dearseall its also gotten very expensive with some ski areas demanding 70€ for a daypass

fully agree, these railjets are far behind the former trains. and many czech trains today are far better than the austrian ones.

@@nicowag45 Yes, the railjet looks good and they have thought of many little practical details. But the seats are just very uncomfortable on a longer journey. It's the same with the ICE. The older ICE trains had super comfy seats, while the new ones have really bad seats.

Yes, the Südbahnhof was entirely demolished and they built the new Hauptbahnhof there instead.

C Paquito qwqwbwwyqqjhgbvg

The new main station was built in place of the two former Südbahnhof and Ostbahnhof stations (south and east termini), to accomodate through trains. In the process they also built a new tunnel connecting the western railway line to the main station, so most intercity and international trains from the west now also go there (and continue on to the airport or towards Slovakia, the Czech republic, or Hungary). The old Westbahnhof now mainly serves local and regional trains, with the exception of the Westbahn trains to Salzburg (the company, not the line - dont be confused *g*), but these services have been greatly expanded (which was quite necessary and couldn't be done as long as they had to share the tracks with long-distance trains).

That's new to me. On the other side ÖBB has downgraded its classes. Now Business is the 1. class and so on.

yes it's allowed in germany.👍

@@am18957 - Good to know. By reports of "passengers" the economic class at Railjet has uncomforatble seats like flying tubes called air planes. Therefore a railjet trip Munich-Salzburg and back would be nice. - Heinz

@@pega17pl I've used the economy seats quite often. In my opinion they are above average, a bit hard but with personal trash and amazing leg room. I don't think first class is necessary.

@@pega17pl Not at all... the seats are totally fine...

Business class costs only 15€ over first class

@Callum HUTCHINSON The Czechian railways use the exact same kind of Viaggio and Taurus as OEBB.

2 Diesel locomotives with 4.000 hp each seems like such a waste for a 4 coach train. Here in Austria, the grandfather of the Charger (the Siemens "Hercules") has about half the horsepower and often pulls 5 coach regional trains at up to 140 km/h (though they are only used for that purpose if some part of the track is not electrified).

@@FrostyAUT I think they use two diesel locomotives in order to get the train up to 125 mph, and allow for adding additional coaches.

Me too! I'm a frequent user ot the RJ quiet zone.

In some regional trains there is even a quiet zone

❤ CZ 🍺+ 🍽 😎

Not compleatly true, the new ÖBB Railjets of 2015 are the same as the CD ones

​@@heybenjii5544 No, even the newer ÖBB ones are still different - different restaurant provider and BC. And the new ÖBB Railjets that are now being constructed (and will run from the end of 2021) will be completely different from all current Railjets. To mix it completely there will be also new ČD IC coaches almost the same as Railjets with different seats. 😀😀

@@jmsmilfajt Thats correct. What is Bc though? And when are the new Cd Coaches coming?

@@heybenjii5544 Business class - BC. The seats are the same but ÖBB ones are in compartments. The new ČD Siemens coaches with Škoda interior will be tested between Prague - Cheb next year and from 15-December 2021 they will operate exclusively on this route (Cheb is the CZ/DE border station)

Jakub Hrouda I second that!

Business in ČD railjets Are more "business" looking.

funny because the trainset is owned by the ÖBB or at least the locomotives.

I agree about JLV restaurants, the food is the best you can get on regular trains and it's great they come to Graz in Austria.

With the Restaurant and the Coffee you are right, but often you do not get everything because something is not working but CZ have a lot more choice. The Business in CZ is a joke, no extra compartment no xtra seats

Where do you live?

We won't go down easy :)

What are you talking about, there are more trains then ever

@@heybenjii5544 and what are trains good for if there isnt anyone to board them?

@@germanulrich They are really full actually

That's because the ÖBB can spend as much tax money as they want. The other Railways have to actually finance that from their own profits, and thus cut them because the costs for new cars is higher then they would ever get in return from running those services.

@@germanmosca wront, the öbb is at the point where they have to repay the funds.

@@Kullioking That is very doubtful. Unless you are talking funds they received from banks. For government funding they don't have to repay anything. And would actually be unable to afford it, nor would they survive that since they can't make enough money to keep the operations going and repay all that money at the same time.
