Road Name History: The Austrian Federal Railways (German: Österreichische Bundesbahnen or ÖBB, formerly the Bundesbahn Österreich or BBÖ) is the national railway system of Austria, and the administrator of Liechtenstein's railways. The ÖBB group is owned entirely by the Republic of Austria and is divided into several separate businesses that manage the infrastructure and operate passenger and freight services.

The Austrian Federal Railways has had two discrete periods of existence. It was first formed in 1923, using the Bundesbahn Österreich name, as a successor to the Imperial Royal Austrian State Railways (kkStB), but was incorporated into the Deutsche Reichsbahn during the 1938-1945 Anschluss. It was reformed in 1947, using the slightly different Österreichische Bundesbahnen name, and remains in existence in this form.

Major changes currently being made to the Austrian railway network are the construction of the Wien Hauptbahnhof (Vienna main station), the Koralm Railway, the Semmering Base Tunnel and the Brenner Base Tunnel connection with Italy.

Brand/Importer Information: L.S. Models is a Belgian firm that was created in 1992 with the purpose of offering models of Belgian variants of European rolling stock; it started by offering customized cars based on Jouef HO models. From 1995 to 2001, it was also the Belgian importer for Jouef, Piko, Electrotren, Rivarossi, Lima, Arnold, Bemo and Sachsenmodelle.
Starting in 2000, L.S. Models designed its own original models, starting with an HO scale version of an exclusive Belgian passenger car. Its range later expanded to N scale models and to other European countries (France, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, ...).
Its models are highly detailed and received several prizes; they are priced accordingly.
