Would someone mind posting an example (Wien to Budapest) of an Austrian train ticket to check how to read it?
Thanks

Here is a pretty good explanation that might help you: https://help.raileurope.com/article/43474-obb-train-ticket-translation
Okay, here is an OBB ticket. The type you will end up with if you book on line, download the ticket and print it. The type you get out of a machine at the station, they type you are handed at the OBB ticket counter and the appearance in the OBB app might look different (bet on it).
So, this one is Vienna Hbf to Prague. https://static.tildacdn.net/tild6632-6432-4133-b337-653439636162/ticket.jpeg That’s obvious, correct?
DATUM on the left is the departure date which in this case is the 6th of October (they do year, month, day format)
ZEIT on the left is the departure time which is 13:10 (1:10pm)
DATUM on the right is the arrival date which in this case is the 6th of October (they do year, month, day format)
ZEIT on the right is the arrival time which is 17:07 (5:07pm)
Sparschiene means it’s a discount ticket so its only good for the train listed on the ticket.
RJ 76 is the train number which is RailJet equipment.
