Austrian rail operator OeBB on Saturday unveiled its new generation of sleeper trains—a response to demands from travelers for less pollutant alternatives to planes and petrol or diesel cars.
Modern privacy is good for ‘business’ trips, but I recall good discussions with strangers on old-fashioned sleepers, if the evening is long enough.
As the lines get faster the distance for one night should increase, not just replicate previous services.
ÖBB advance prices can be good value, but I wish they’d lower the supplements for inter-rail. We’d still use old couchettes for a family trip.
