I have mixed feelings regarding this station, as first it stops at SCS and SC17, which is really…read moregreat as all the bog stores are here. So for convenience it is really great. However this stop is just one stop outside the Vienna City area, which means you need to by another transport ticket to travel this one stop, which for me is a not worth spending 2.20 Euro to go one stop. Lucky for me this cost is covered by my IKEA Family card, so i do not need to pay it, but for other people they have this extra cost to get here. I would actually like to see an additional stop an other 300 meters down the line, to give faster access to the Multiplex part of SCS shopping City.

Arrived into Vienna the other day via train and I was stunned at how convenient it was! By merely…read moretaking the escalator to the street level, I was right where the tram was into the city! I got off my train and was on my train in a merely minutes! The tram was easy as tickets were available on the app with a slight discount. There are also tickets available for sale on the tram.

European train stations are so nice. This one has 3 floors of restaurants, shops and even an IKEA…read more. Didn't have enough time to see the IKEA but I saw the elevator stop. It's a large railway station with multiple platforms on different floors. It's spacious and very clean. Signage is so very clear and also in English. Besides the shops and the cafes, there is something so touching and always worth noting. There's a statue memorializing the Kindertransport. The statue is of a young boy sitting on a suitcase. This was the train station in 1938 that took over 10,000 young children from Austria, Germany and Czechoslovakia, separating them from their parents, and transporting them to England so they wouldn't face Nazi Persecution. It's a poignant statue and the trauma these children faced should never be forgotten

The end station of the U6, what can way say about this. Very…read moreBASIC indeed, but serves it's purpose in life. I do not always come home this way but when i do it is easy access from the SCS Shuttle bus.

OEBB and the majories renovated lots of train stations…read more This one is one of the rare ones that are a big success. Easily accessable for handicapped and older people, mothers with children by two elevators from both sides and straight paths that are not THAT steep! The best of all is that the original construction substance was kept, meaning a brick building and only some glass and metal parts. The roof of the brick building is also kept, meaning that this provides much better protection against icy, stormy winter weather compared to the newly-renovated other stations were the wind blows right into the direction of the waiting passengers. The metal seats are still a problem, because not enough sitting possibilites and metal means cold in winter hot in summer and - the rust pretty easy and that results in higher maintenance costs than the wooden benches that have been there before!!! The metal-glass construction of the waiting area opposite to the brick building at the other platform offers also better protection than at other stations. The toilets are FREE!!! - not very clean, though. The waiting room is warm, lots of green and wood and lots of wooden benches and it is not closed like at so many other stations, where people are freezing in winter!!!! The photos in the waiting room show the HISTORY OF THE TRAIN STATION which is really really GREAT!!!! This is one of the best train stations in Austria!!!! Hats off!!!!

Had no idea THIS is the main station. I thought Wien Mitte was…read more I went to the Mitte OBB office to buy Bratislava and Budapest train tickets and discovered Wein Meidling is where most trains depart from Vienna heading for other countries. Most of this station- ticket sales and food court is underground. So it's a little deceiving when walking up to it and only seeing the tracks. There is an OBB office and business class lounge here. I recommend staying towards the center underground in the winter while waiting on your train. The chilly wind comes down the steps quickly. This station connects underground with the U6 and several Rapid trains.

I use this station almost every day, as i change here to go to work in the mornings. With the more…read moremodern look it has now and better access to the platforms, i find it rather easy to move about here. It also offers everything else you may need for your train travels, food, newspapers and books, as well as travel center and ticket office. All in all quit good i reckon.

I am a fan of stations that allow a fast change to the other line, as not all station allow for a…read morefast change. But this one you can just stay on the same platform and change from the U6 to the U4 or visa versa. I have never actually been above ground here, so one day i will need to check that out as well.
