While plotting a trip next year I've come across a very good limited time offer for seniors (over 61) in Austria.
Between October 27 and November 26 you can go anywhere in Austria for 19 for a day ticket, or 59 for the entire month.
No time restrictions, valid on all ÖBB services except EuroNight.
Valid with a senior railcard (Vorteilscard Senior) which is 29 for a year, available online.
The info page is only in German, but you can translate with your browser: http://www.oebb.at/de/Tickets/Freizeit-Tickets/Senioren-Ticket/
I think ÖBB makes a similar offer at other off-peak times of the year.
Nearly as good as Belgium's permanent senior offer of 6 return between any two stations (over 65, no railcard needed, after 0900 weekdays).
