2002
The ÖBB "Upgrading-Programm" lasted from 2002 to 2010. Nearly all ÖBB long-distance coaches were modernised in that time, including the Bmz 28-71.0 coaches. From 2002 to 2005 and due to cost reasons, most coaches get a new grey livery and a modernised interior but not all are upgraded for a maximum speed of 200 km/h. From ~2005 onwards, all coaches modernised in the ÖBB "Upgrading-Programm" are upgraded for 200 km/h maximum speed. Also, all of the earlier modernised cars are upgraded for 200 km/h maximum speed during this later phase.
