New super train on a secret test drive from Munich to Italy. From April 8th, ÖBB's new Railjet trains will be in use on the route.
The new generation of the Railjet is already in use in Austria at Easter, between Munich and Bologna. The problem of constant overcrowding on trains to Italy will also remain, as will the extra quarter-hour break at the Brenner Pass. Both problems could change from 2025, when the Italian super-fast Frecciarossa trains are expected to expand the range of Italian services.
