Hello,
Here you go, some pics from Friday and Sunday. Also some slightly nostalgic trains, sadly one nostalgic diesel loco stood idle at the shed instead of taking over one of them.
Full series can be seen here:

Example pics:
On Friday afternoon I took a Schnellbahn from my home station Atzgersdorf-Mauer to Gumpolskirchen on the Südbahn
Schnellbahn being overtaken at Mödling
Gumpoldskirchen station, very straight bit with the only (short) tunnel in this area
VERY tastelessly colored Golf at the level crossing (just park here, the Taurus is already coming in the background
)
Through the vineyards
Another commuter train that will be parted at Wiener Neustadt, one part on the Aspang line (see my previous post), the other further on the mainline over Semmering Pass
InterCity with Transalpin EMU from Vienna to Graz
ÖBBEuroCity with two Tauri in charge
Long auto train
Sunday morning the weather was worse, nostalgic 1010 with green Schlieren coaches as "Erlebniszug Zauberberge" at Mödling
At Wiener Neustadt the train gets parted, one goes over the Semmering Pass to Mürzzuschlag (1010), two go on the branchlines to Puchberg am Schneeberg and Gutenstein (both 2016, one should have been green 2143.040)
Using the one to Puchberg, 2016 for the train to Gutenstein is ready
Getting out at the first stop, still in Wiener Neustadt, the sun is showing up
The train to Gutenstein follows closely (the branchlines are divided at the next station, Bad Fischau-Brunn)
Regular train from Puchberg which I took back to Wiener Neustadt main station
Green 2143 at Wiener Neustadt shed
One of the smaller yards, a little further down the line
Cover!
Better cross the railway together
The train from Puchberg is coming back
Parallel drive, CityShuttle on Southern Railway and train from Gutenstein
1142 with a lot of heat, Wiener Neustadt cathedral in the background (new, as the town was bombed in WWII)
Now the 5047 can proceed
4010 with InterCity from Graz approaching
4010.019 is the only one with red numbers
Freigth train from the branchline in the curve
Encounter with an InterCity
"Erlebniszug Zauberberge" on the second tour of the day to Puchberg
Leaning into the curve
Going back to Gutenstein
Holiday work
Long train of locos at Wiener Neustadt station
Also coming back from Gutenstein
And the regular train from Puchberg joins
Off to lunch!
