The Austrian Railway, known as Österreichische Bundesbahnen (ÖBB), is a highly efficient and well-connected railway network across Austria's landscapes, with a history dating back to the 19th century. It has evolved into a modern, technologically advanced system known for punctuality and reliability, linking major cities such as Vienna, Salzburg, and Innsbruck, and providing access to remote Alpine regions. ## Railjet trains and routes Railjet trains are operated by Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) together with Czech Railways (ČD) on a regular basis, running between major cities in Austria, the Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, and Switzerland. Trains run between Vienna and Salzburg every hour, and there is a Railjet Express (RJX) service from Vienna to Salzburg with only one stop, at St. Pölten, continuing on to Munich or Zurich with regular stopovers. There are also routes connecting Vienna with Budapest and Prague. Railjet departs from Vienna to Graz every hour, and every 2 hours it runs directly from Prague Central Station or Vienna International Airport to Graz via Vienna. Twice a day there is a train from Vienna to Venice. Railjet also has a route to Vienna Airport. ## Stations There are many stations along Railjet routes, including Vienna Main Station (Wien Hauptbahnhof), Prague Main Station (Praha hlavní nádraží), and Venice Central Railway Station (Venezia Santa Lucia), among others. All mentioned stations are centrally located in their cities, saving time compared to flying and reducing the carbon (CO2) footprint of the journey.

Economy Class is preferred by most travelers as it offers the best value for money. First Class is one step above Economy, offering adjustable seating, more legroom, and more electrical outlets per cabin. Business Class is designed for business travelers, with a quiet atmosphere, more space, high-quality seating, and good working conditions. All cars have leather seats, free Wi-Fi, and electrical outlets, with amenity levels varying by class — though all passengers receive high-standard service. Railjet trains feature a restaurant car and a children's cinema. Cabin service is included with First and Business class tickets, and Business class tickets include a welcome drink of choice.
