## About This Content
Climb aboard iconic Austrian traction in the form of the advanced ÖBB 1144 and
CityShuttle “Wiesel” from Skyhook Games and Railworks Austria!
In the 1990s, passenger capacity on certain routes in Austria were reaching
their limits, and something needed to be done to relieve the strain. The
solution was the introduction of double-decker coaches, which have the unique
ability to increase capacity without requiring longer trains. The first of the
new coaches and control cars rolled out in 1997, passenger operations began
the same year, and those who travelled on the new coaches were reportedly
impressed.
The new double-decker coaches – which had been branded as the CityShuttle
“Wiesel” (Weasel) – transformed travel across Austria, but not without
accompanying traction. They were built with inter-operability in mind, meaning
multiple ÖBB locomotives are compatible with the sets, however one locomotive
which regularly operates CityShuttle services is the ÖBB 1144.
The ÖBB 1144 fleet was built in the mid-1970s as the ÖBB 1044, an electric
locomotive that was a powerful solution to Austria’s challenging rail network.
They were the backbone of the ÖBB line-up until 2000, when a batch of
EuroSprinter locomotives were ordered to assist and eventually replace them.
Instead of scrapping the ÖBB 1044s, they were sent to be converted into
locomotives capable of push-pull CityShuttle operations, and as a result of
the modifications, were reclassified as the ÖBB 1144.
Twinned up, the ÖBB 1144 and CityShuttle Wiesel make for a great operational
pair, and have arrived in-duo for Train Simulator service, complete with
advanced features.
