The railway in Austria has always had an eventful history. On 19 July 1923, the National Council passed the Federal Railways Act, which for the first time established a separate economic entity, the Austrian Federal Railways (BBÖ), as a company. Due to the enormous coal shortage at the time, electrification was introduced. After the turmoil of the Second World War, the focus was on reconstruction. This was followed by the replacement of the steam locomotives and the introduction of the first interval timetable.
After the transformation from a state-owned enterprise to a company in 1992 on the occasion of the imminent accession to the EU, ÖBB was restructured in 2004 in the group ÖBB Holding AG with operative subsidiaries. At the timetable change 2008/2009, the Railjet trains were put into operation. They are among the fastest locomotive-hauled trains in the world.
100 years later, the Austrian Federal Railways are celebrating this historic event. To mark the occasion, a particularly attractive Railjet is being put on the rails. The motto of this train is: "100 years of ÖBB - 100 reasons to work for ÖBB".
