Graz Hauptbahnhof, abbreviated Graz Hbf[2] (German for Graz Main Station;[3] sometimes translated as Graz Central Station[4]), is the main railway station in Graz, the capital of the Austrian federal state Styria. The station is located some 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) west of the city centre, to which it is connected by tram.[4][5]
The station serves as a major node on the Southern Railway, which links it to Vienna in the north, and Slovenia in the south. It is also the terminus of the Styrian Eastern railway line, which runs eastwards towards Hungary, and of the local Köflach railway line to the west. In the future, the Koralm Railway will provide a direct link from Graz to Italy via Klagenfurt.[1]
