Passenger service on the electrified regional railway line of Steiermärkische Landesbahnen between Feldbach and Bad Gleichenberg will continue as weekend-only service for the time being. On Saturdays and Sundays, four trains in each direction operate mainly for tourists. Connections to the S-Bahn service S3 to the provincial capital Graz are provided at Feldbach ÖBB. The service will be initially offered from 23 January to 1 November 2021 – by then all involved parties should agree upon a sustainable concept for the future of this attractive branch line.
