# Lower Austria Expands Train Services in December

October 28, 2026 at 05:35 PM

> Starting December 13, Lower Austria will increase train frequency on key lines and transition to low-floor fleets for better accessibility.

**Lower Austria** will see a significant expansion of train services starting December 13, 2026. Key updates include four additional train pairs on the **Pottendorfer line** and half-hourly REX6 service to and from **Vienna** during peak morning and afternoon hours.

Commuters should note new early REX1 connections to **Wiener Neustadt** and increased S3 departures. International routes to Břeclav, Bratislava, and Prague are also expanding, while the REX51, S40, and REX4 lines will transition to exclusively low-floor trains.

The expansion precedes major 2027 construction projects that will cause service restrictions at Wiener Neustadt Nord and a four-month closure on the **Franz-Josefs-Bahn**. Updated schedules are now available via the VOR-App AnachB and the AnachB.VOR.at website.
