The crown jewel of the OBB network is Wien Hauptbahnhof (Vienna Central Station), opened in 2015 and one of the most modern railway stations in Central Europe. Designed as a fully through-running station — replacing the old terminus layout — it handles over 1,000 trains and around 145,000 passengers every day. The station is directly connected to the Vienna U-Bahn metro, trams, and city buses, and features more than 90 shops, restaurants, and service outlets across its three levels. International high-speed trains to Budapest, Prague, Warsaw, and night trains to cities across Europe all depart from Wien Hauptbahnhof.
Beyond Vienna, major OBB hubs include Salzburg Hauptbahnhof, a key stop on the corridor between Vienna and Munich with direct ICE and Railjet services, and Innsbruck Hauptbahnhof, the gateway to the Tyrolean Alps and an important junction for routes into Italy and Switzerland. Both stations have been extensively modernised in recent years and offer the full range of passenger facilities expected at a major European rail hub.
