The former border station resumed its old role as a nodal point with dense regular interval operations and long-distance connections.

Passenger numbers only rose with the expansion of the network from the 1980s, the introduction of regular interval operations and attractive fares and a greater environmental awareness among the people.

The two existing tracks between the neighbouring towns are being rebuilt and are being supplemented by a third track to give the necessary capacity to enable regular interval operations on the Salzburg S-Bahn.

Another C++-class library was created in 1993 at the Hamburg University of Technology called Profil/BIAS (Programmer's Runtime Optimized Fast Interval Library, Basic Interval Arithmetic), which made the usual interval operations more user friendly.
