I'm currently watching Commissario Montalbano on BBC 4. For those that don't know the series is set in Sicily. There is a railway line shown in this episode (2. Equal Time) does any one know which line?

I think the station (shown about an hour in) is Santa Panagia (Siracusa Province) - it's on the abandoned coastal section to the North of Siracusa - a bit out of the way for Montalbano.

See

and

I don't know about the railway shown in the opening scenes but that looked like a different line (it's well maintained and not electrified) - presumably it's somewhere closer to the usual locations around Ragusa.
