The
Eastern Railway , formerly also known as the
Vienna-Raab railway , is a two-track, electrified railway line that runs from
Vienna towards
Hungary. The name
Eastern Railway refers to several branches of the line as well. At present the western terminus of the railway line in Vienna,
Wien Südbahnhof, is being replaced by the new
Hauptbahnhof. That will allow continuous east-west traffic and will connect the Eastern Railway directly to the
Western Railway and
Southern Railway.
