Electric locomotive 1116 181 of the Austrian Federal Railways. ■ Cityjet design ■ Current operating condition with black hood ■ Digitally switchable high beams ■ Licensed ÖBB model ■ Z21 driver's cab available In 2019, ÖBB initiated an upgrade program for the renewal of double-decker trains (DOSTO). This will enable around 100 coaches to be optimised to the modern Cityjet standard by 2023. The modernisation includes, among other things, on-board WIFI, reupholstered seats, multi-purpose areas in each intermediate carriage with more space for bicycles, prams and luggage, as well as newly designated quiet zones. In May 2022, halfway through the ongoing DOSTO upgrade program, electric locomotive 1116 181 was painted in the Cityjet design. In this way, ÖBB is sending an important signal to advertise its attractive public transport offers, especially for local commuter transport in Lower Austria.
