The Verbindungsbahn (lit.'connecting railway line'), also known as the Stammstrecke (lit.'trunk route'), is a railway line in Vienna, Austria. It runs 16.2 kilometres (10.1 mi) across Vienna, roughly east–west, connecting with most major railway lines in the vicinity of Wien Hauptbahnhof. The section between Wien Praterstern and Wien Meidling, along with part of the North railway line, hosts most Vienna S-Bahn services.
