VIENNA to KRAKOW by Train: EuroCity Danubius in 1st Class

Join me on this international journey by train on the EuroCity Danubius from Vienna to Kraków, with stops in the Czech Republic, and Poland. We’ll pass through the major junction of Břeclav, witness a mid-journey locomotive change in Bohumín, where a CD Class 193 is replaced with a PKP Class EU07, and experience cross-border travel in an ÖBB 1st Class coach… that may or may not have seen a sponge since the 19th century.

In this video:
– Vienna Hauptbahnhof including OBB's 1st Class Lounge
