Wien Meidling railway station
Wien Meidling is one of Vienna's main railway stations located at the Philadelphiabrücke. When the Südbahnhof was demolished in December 2009 to build Vienna's new Hauptbahnhof, Wien Meidling assumed the functions of the Südbahnhof and has been in the 2020s frequented by 55,000 people daily, up from its usual 45,000, making it one of Austria's busiest railway stations.
