How does the network fare system in Styria work?

• All trains. Suburban trains, regional and REX trains on short-distance connections, IC, EC, RJ, EN/NJ on long-distance connections. A network ticket is valid for travelling in second-class coaches.
• Regional buses. Styrian regional bus lines are identified by a three-digit line number (e.g. 470). Express buses are identified by an X: X20 to Weiz, X30/X31 to Hartberg and X40/X41 to Fürstenfeld. The network also covers call-a-bus services.
• Urban transport. Urban transport (city) lines in Graz, Leoben/Trofaiach, Bruck/Kapfenberg, Aichfeld have single digit or two-digit line numbers (e.g. 1, 31, 34E, 76U, N1). The Schlossberg funicular in Graz is also included.
• Night buses. The Nightline in Graz (standard network fare) and the Saturday Nightline in the Liezen district (special network fare).

But: You cannot use the ÖBB-IC bus or other long-distance buses, for example Flixbus etc., with a Styrian network ticket.

• Network tickets are valid for all means of transport in the purchased zones until the end of ticket’s period of validity.
• If you change to a bus/train of another public transport company/line you do not need to buy another ticket.
• Network tickets can be passed on to another person – with the exception of six-month/twelve-month passes with photograph.
• Network tickets can be bought for any date.

The Styrian network fare applies to all public transport in Graz. Graz is in zone 101. Every ticket for this zone is valid for all modes of public transport: tram and bus lines with single and two-digit line number, the Schlossberg funicular, regional buses with three-digit line number and all trains.
