For travel in their immediate area, they'd walk. Ordinary people did a lot less long-distance travel then than nowadays.

For the journey to Hamburg, they'd use the railways. The KoΕ‘ice–BohumΓ­n Railway would likely be the most local service, and opened in 1872. The Bratislava to Vienna line opened in 1848, and the Warsaw-Vienna line in 1845. Part-way along the line to Warsaw, at what is now Olderberg, one changes onto the William Railway for Berlin. From there, one takes the Berlin-Hamburg railway to Hamburg.
