Yes. In the week before the collaps the trains travelled on the old line due to works on the new line, near bivio Fegino I think. Works are correlated to the "Terzo Valico" another railway that will connect Genova to the Pianura Padana in the next years. The line that you noticed should be the...

Hello Stephen. The Milano-Genova railway (Succursale line) do not pass under the Morandi Bridge. There were a lot of delays in the days around the accident, but now it is ok. You can suffer only some normal delays (traffic, other trains delays etc). There are two lines between Genova and...

For Intercity trains fares are different. You can choose many options and deals (if available). Usually early booking allows you to find the cheapest fare, but the different fares have different rules for refund, change and access to a different train. For example, the cheapest fare "Super...

You are welcome :wink: let us know if you enjoyed trains in Tuscany.

Onto the Milan-Florence-Rome route the most popular trains are the Frecciarossa and Italo. Frecciarossa are ETR 500 and some ETR 400 (Frecciarossa 1000). Italo are executed by ETR 575 (Alstom AGV). From Florence to Rome there are also Frecciargento (ETR 600/610), Intercity and Regional trains...

Yes, Milan-Turin HSL is equipped with ERTMS/ETCS Level 2. I do not know how many people travelling on TGVs use the stops in Novara and Vercelli. I did not try these trains. Using the HSL you can not stop in Novara and Vercelli, the trip takes 45 minutes from Turin to Milan (Torino Porta...

There are a lot of protests against HSL Lyon-Turin, especially in Val di Susa, where new high speed line should pass through. The base tunnel under the Alps is 57 km long. The "no TAV" (people against HSL) sustain, mainly, that new railway is too expensive and useless. Also in my opinion 2023...

Nowadays the trip from Paris to Turin takes 5 hours and 30 minutes (TGV), than trip from Turin to Venice takes 4 hours and 20 minutes (Frecciabianca). I have no clear idea how long these will take when all high speed lines will be finished, it depend in what way the complete line will be...

Nowadays the Torino-Milano high speed line is not fully exploited. The Torino-Milano high speed line is part of the Torino-Venezia high speed line, that is under construction. Three sections of the Torino-Venezia high speed line are working (Torino-Milano, Milano-Treviglio and Padova-Mestre)...

I find unconfortable seats (Level service: prima) on Italo trains in Italy, Freccciarossa's seats are more confortable, especially in Business class. Confortable also seats onto Frecciargento and Frecciabianca trains (First class).
