I’ve been in Vienna for the last couple of days and come across a few things that were unexpected.
The most unexpected one for me was finding a Railjet liveried 1116 on a Wiesel set on the Franz Josefs Bahn. How common is it to find one of the Railjet locos on regional work?
Second question relates to the 4020s. On my previous visit to Vienna in 2022 they weren’t to be found anywhere other than the two routes that pass through Heiligenstadt. This time they’re popping up all over the place. Are the 4020s seeing increased use now or was it simply chance that I didn’t see more of them last time?
Third question, how long have the step entrance trams on the Badner Bahn got left? I thought they were supposed to have been withdrawn by now but there’s still quite a few around.
Final question, which line am I most likely to find one of the newest generation of U Bahn units on? I’ve tried all of them (apart from the U6) and had no luck so far.
Thanks in advance
