In 2019, the ÖBB initiated an upgrade programme for the renewal of
double-decker trains (DOSTO). In this way, approx. 100 coaches are
being optimised to the modern Cityjet standard by 2023. The
modernisation comprises amongst other things on-board WIFI,
reupholstered seats, multi-purpose areas in each intermediate coach
with more space for bicycles, prams and baggage as well as
newly-designated quiet zones.
In May 2022, halfway through the running DOSTO upgrade programme,
the electric locomotive 1116 181 was painted in the Cityjet-design.
In this way, the ÖBB is sending an important signal advertising
their attractive public transport offers, in particular for local
commuter transport in Lower Austria.
