Wien Westbahnhof

In the upper level of the listed mid-century modern ticket hall (built 1949 - 1954)

 

Westbahnhof railway station in Vienna used to be the starting point of long-distance rail traffic to Germany, Switzerland, France and Belgium. However "[w]ith the 2015 opening of Wien Hauptbahnhof, all long-distance services of the state-owned Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) were transferred to that station, although private operator WESTbahn maintains its intercity service from Salzburg [and newly Munich]. At the same time, the frequency of fast regional service along the West Railway was increased." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wien_Westbahnhof_railway_station
