Just came across this tweet from ÖBB:
It also includes the below map showing the range of routes:
So a range of services starting from Zürich and serving Vienna, Prague (via Linz), Budapest, Graz, Zagreb, Hamburg, Berlin, Prague (via Dresden), Amsterdam, Barcelona and Rome. Looking at the map I would guess quite a lot of portion working with a lot of splitting and joining going on at Frankfurt as it seems three different services are going that way. I also suppose there will be some scope for combining with existing Nightjet services as well in some locations.
It's very existing to see sleeper services undergoing a real renaissance on the Continent. And I have to say I fancy Amsterdam to Barcelona with a day in Zurich in the middle
