The term "Valousek design" generally refers to the livery and design of Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) vehicles introduced in the 1980s, based on the designs of architect Wolfgang Valousek.
After contributing to the design of new multiple units and service vehicles, he was commissioned to create a unified visual identity for ÖBB locomotives and carriages.
Many carriages were not only repainted, but also redesigned inside.
In addition to the well-known designs, many concepts were created that were never implemented. As a tribute to Wolfgang Valousek, we present this special livery variant of a push-pull train.
