==History==
Rather than choosing electric multiple units (EMUs) such as ICE 3 or Shinkansen, ÖBB opted for locomotive-hauled push-pull high-speed trains, which could be hauled by its existing fleet of ''Taurus'' high-speed Siemens EuroSprinter electric locomotives.〔Stefan Wehinger, railjet to take off next year, ''section:'' "Push-pull formation"〕 On 9 February 2006, 9 months after receiving sealed bids, the board of directors of the Austrian Federal Railways awarded Siemens a contract to build 23 sets of 7-coach trains, with the Siemens design viewed to be the best as well as the least expensive.〔Marl, Pettauer, railjet, Slide 7〕 In September 2007 Siemens received an additional order for 44 more Railjet trains from the Austrian Federal Railways. The total value of the order was €798 million for 469 passenger carriages.〔ÖBB railjet : Eine neue Fahrzeuggeneration für die ÖB, Slide 5〕
In September 2011 Siemens agreed the sale of sixteen Railjet trainsets to the Czech Railways (České Dráhy); the sets should have been originally built for an uncompleted order for ÖBB, CD's trainsets were to be hauled by Škoda's ČD Class 380 electric locomotives. In 2012 Czech Railways cancelled the order. A reduced order of seven viaggio comfort trainsets was agreed in August 2012.
In June 2014 OBB took up an option for a remaining 9 railjets from Siemens.
