!!!Pottendorfer Linie

Pottendorf Railway, branches off the  Southern Railway at 
Wien-Meidling (Vienna-Meidling), originally planned as rail link with 
the Levant, as was the  Aspang Railway Line, but in 1875 linked up at 
Pottendorf with the railway line between Gramatneusiedl and Wiener 
Neustadt, which had been built in 1871; both railway lines were run by 
the Suedbahngesellschaft (Southern Railway Company, nationalised in 
1924). Now operated as a by-pass line to absorb part of the traffic on 
the Southern Railway line between Vienna and Wiener Neustadt.
