FAQPage Schema
How do I plan an Austrian rail trip and get departure times and platforms?▼

To plan an Austrian rail trip, you specify the origin, destination, and desired departure time. The planner locates stations via LocMatch and calls the ÖBB mgate API to return structured results including times, platforms, and train names.

Can I fetch live station departures and arrivals for ÖBB trains?▼

Yes, you can fetch live station departures and arrivals for ÖBB trains. The StationBoard operation queries the ÖBB mgate API with proper authentication headers to retrieve real-time schedule data for your specified station.

Does the Austrian rail planner support monitoring service disruptions across neighboring countries?▼

The Austrian rail planner supports monitoring service disruptions across Austria and bordering countries. It queries the ÖBB mgate API to fetch disruption alerts, allowing you to track real-time service statuses for your journey.

What is the best way to search for train connections between Vienna and Salzburg?▼

The best way to search for train connections is using the TripSearch operation against the ÖBB mgate API. You provide the start and end locations along with the travel time, and it returns the best available routes with accurate departure and arrival details.

Do I need to handle API authentication headers manually to fetch Austrian rail schedules?▼
