I'm only now really going through the PLK tables (got work, rest and that other project that turns out just doesn't wanna wait xp) and holy, somehow I'd missed the news about EuroNight Carpatia, a Przemyśl-Prague/Budapest/Munich via Vienna night train (Czech couchette in the Prague part, Polish sleeper to Budapest, Polish both to Munich).
Running a *second* night train Kraków-Vienna-Munich is certainly a choice, especially since from what I recall these can't serve Vienna very well as they have to traverse the Westbahn at night to not get into the way of RJXs. Better than dealing with DB for more than absolutely necessary, I guess.
More interesting is that they decided to have it pull into Kędzierzyn-Koźle and do a runaround with the loco instead of using the perfectly cromulent connecting curve that ought to be available there
