Messina Centrale?
That's right! The photo was taken a couple of weeks ago, while waiting for the Siracusa portion of the sleeper train to Milan to arrive.

No....but not too far away. I realise that there are very few clues in the picture - apart from a generic Italian water tower and (somewhat tumbledown) goods shed. The photo was taken on the day in June 2019 when the newly-restored unit was transferred from the OMS workshops at Porrena to its new operating base at Pistoia....at the point of reversal. It is standing in a bay platform not normally used by FS-Trenitalia trains.

No....because that (my local station, incidentally!) is in the wrong direction. However....
Is the right answer! The unit had been hauled from Porrena into bay platform 1N at Arezzo - normally used by TFT services to and from Pratovecchio-Stia - by TFT (ex-FS) diesel-electric loco no. D341 1063....and then a short time later it was shunted over to the down yard, where preserved FFSI electric loco no. E646 028 was waiting to couple-on and haul ETR 252 back to its new home at Pistoia.
Tocc'a te!

Correct! This photo is from either 2005 or 2010. The first time I went in 2005 tracks had already been removed from Hijaz Station (I think possibly the year before) and Kadem station was the terminus.
Your go @WessexEclectic.

Oui, vraiment!

I see what you did there.

Thank you... that was actually the exact same platform I arrived on at Lourdes in August 2013, albeit I came via TGV through Bordeaux...
Now, where might this be?

Not Creil.
Consider which routes the specific unit Z20897 / 8 operates on.
