what is it?
The Class 4030 of the Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) were electric multiple units. In the narrower sense, 4030 was the designation of the railcars, the control cars were designated as series 6030 and the intermediate cars as series 7030. They were used in regional train services from 1956 and, with some adaptations, were used as the first generation of trains for the Vienna Schnellbahn from 1962.
