Night train from Salzburg to Ostrava
There currently are a variety of options to travel by night train from Salzburg (Austria) to Ostrava (Czech Republic), taking between approximately 6 and 7 hours: Namely the EN 406 and the IC 60406. These lines are operated by ÖBB and DB.
The Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) operate the Nightjet and Euronight trains (the latter together with other national railway agencies). ÖBB night trains typically feature three types of carriages: seats, couchettes, and sleepers. Seats are for the bravest, while couchettes and sleepers provide a more comfortable journey. Couchettes accommodate up to six people, while sleepers are private compartments for one to three people. They sometimes include a private bathroom or even a shower, sometimes only a sink.
Deutsche Bahn (DB) exited the actual night train business in 2016. However, it operates around a dozen Intercity and Eurocity trains that run exclusively at night. These trains only have first and second class seats. The cars remain lit throughout the night and the seats cannot be reclined.
