Alongside the main train station, the station is the most important long-distance train station in Vienna. All long-distance trains coming from the direction Germany and the Switzerland to Vienna Hbf (and sometimes further towards Slovakia/Hungary) stop in Vienna Meidling. The station gained importance after the Central Station Vienna was put into operation and long-distance traffic from Germany and Switzerland no longer comes via Vienna-Hütteldorf Vienna west train station, but was diverted to Vienna Central Station via Vienna Meidling. The station is in the area of Verkehrsverbundes Ost-Region (VOR).
