The History of Hütteldorf Railway Station starts in 1858, when it was opened. First there was only the Kaiserin-Elisabeth-Bahn and later called Westbahn.
Stadtbahn: In 1898 the Wiener Stadt- und Verbindungsbahn (Stadtbahn) opened. In the first 27 years it worked with steam trains and in 1925 it got electrified.
Trains and Schnellbahn: At the station you can find many trains:
• S45: Also called Vorortelinie (Suburban line) is a „Schnellbahn“ and operates between Wien Hütteldorf and Wien Handelskai.
• S50: A „Schnellbahn“ from Wien Westbahnhof to Eichgraben-Altlengbach wich is a station in the Vienna Forest in Lower Austria.
• S80: A second line wich only operates in Vienna from Wien Hütteldorf to Wien Aspern Nord.
• REX 50/51: Regional express-trains wich have less stations than the S50 and can travel faster. Those trains operate between Wien Westbahnhof and St. Pölten Hauptbahnhof.
• CJX (Cityjet Xpress): It‘s a Rapid train and a fast alternative for people who are busy.
• WESTbahn: A private train-company operating from Wien Westbahnhof to Linz, Salzburg, St. Johann im Pongau, München, Stuttgart, Innsbruck, Bregenz and Lindau
