ÖBB Mireo long-distance transport

The aim of the study was to evaluate and optimise the proposed passenger carriage design of the new Siemens Mireo trains for ÖBB in intra-Alpine long-distance transport in terms of luggage storage options, achievable passenger changeover time and the expected utilisation rate based on customer behaviour.

Client: ÖBB Personenverkehr AG

Duration: 2024

Project description: Proposed passenger carriage designs for the new Siemens Mireo trains for ÖBB in inter-Alpine long-distance transport were evaluated in terms of luggage storage options, achievable passenger changeover time and the expected utilisation rate based on customer behaviour. Based on the evaluations, recommendations were made for optimising luggage storage, accelerating passenger flow and thus shortening passenger changeover times for boarding and alighting scenarios with different numbers of passengers.
