OBB has cancelled it's order for 21 Bombardier (now Alstom) Talent 3 6-car EMUs intended for use on the Vorarlberg S-Bahn. A period of trial running in passenger service ended on 28th February without full certification for these units to operate in Austria being achieved. All 21 of the units ordered for the Voralberg S-Bahn have been built, though only two have carried passengers. It's unclear what will now happen with these units, presumably they're now Alstom's responsibility to either sell on to another operator or to scrap.
OBB also had an order for 25 Talent 3 units for use in the Tyrol region, it's not known what the status of that order is, though a decision is expected to be made imminently.
