It replaces the former central station "Südbahnhof" which is closed for rebuilding. There are trains that depart regularly for Graz HBf ever hour (not at night, the last train is about 21:00 pm, check the schedule!).

We recommend you to get a ÖBB Vorteilscard, which costs 20€ if you are under 26 and gives 50% discount on all trains during 1 year. (Vienna-Graz approx. 17€). You can get it on the train station. Don't forget a picture of you.
Third option is to buy a special ticket for 9€ but you must buy it online at least 3 days before you travel (it is limited so it may be sold out as well). The disadvantage is that you must take the specific train you booked. If you miss the train you lost the money for the ticket.
