The term Valousek design is generally used to describe the paintwork and shape of Austrian Federal Railways vehicles designed by architect Wolfgang Valousek and introduced in the 1980s. After working on the design of new railcars and railway service vehicles, he was commissioned to create a standardized appearance for ÖBB locomotives and wagons. Many wagons were not only repainted, but their interiors were also redesigned. In addition to the well-known designs, there were of course many designs that were never put into practice. As a tribute to Wolfgang Valousek, we present this special paintwork version of a push-pull train.
