#Venezia Santa Lucia 🇮🇹 at dusk. A night train is ready to depart from platform 1. An #FS #Trenitalia Class E.402A electric is hauling the consist, with an E.444R “Tartaruga” in tow. A sleeping car is positioned right behind the locos.
Picture taken in spring 2005, if I remember well.

#Trieste 🇮🇹 Centrale last Friday. Pictured here is the #FS #Trenitalia #InterCityNotte #770 for Rome, which didn’t run because of a strike. Hauled by two Class E402B electrics, top’n’tail, the consist included seat cars, couchettes and a T3 sleeper (one of just a few, it’s got some “Excelsior” cabins with en-suite facilities).

On the last train for today: a 250 kph #FS 🇮🇹 #Trenitalia #Frecciarossa Class #ETR600 high-speed tilting train takes me from #Milan to #Venice. It’s got a sort of #DiningCar, labelled “Freccia Bistrò”. Well, it’s a counter where one can purchase drinks and light meals from a
lovely steward, and take them to one’s seat.

#FS 🇮🇹 #Trenitalia #InterCity trains, like the #Ventimiglia to #Milano one today, haven’t got a proper #DiningCar in their consists. Yet, in most cases, there’s a multi-purpose car with vending machines and an area with bar stools. The espresso coffee, it costs 1.30 Euros, is actually quite decent.☕️👌

#Sondrio 🇮🇹, on the #Milano to #Tirano line, in September 2010: an #FS #Trenitalia #ALe803 unit in #XMPR livery is seen here, under the rain. Towards the end of their career they used to work local and regional duties, like this one on the #Valtellina line.

#Milano 🇮🇹 Centrale, one December morning in 2007: #Trenhotel #Talgo #Euronight “Salvador Dalí”, from #Barcelona 🇪🇸, has just arrived, hauled by a #Trenitalia #FS Class E.656 #Caimano electric. The train is visible on the left. On the adjacent track, we see the nose of a Class E.444R #Tartaruga.

A picture taken at Villa S. Giovanni 🇮🇹 in October 2017: an #FS #Trenitalia #InterCity, hauled by a Class E.402B electric is ready to make its early morning departure. This is, most likely, a Reggio Calabria to Roma Termini service.

#Salerno 🇮🇹 in April 2012: an #FS #Trenitalia ALn 668.1800 railcar, built in the early 1970s, and a #Minuetto unit from the early 2000s, are awaiting further duties. Both are seen here displaying the #XMPR livery.

Two #FS 🇮🇹 #Trenitalia #InterCity trains are seen here at #Venice S.L. station in the early 2000s. A Class E.402A is hauling the one on the left whereas the one on the right will depart in push-pull mode with its cab-car (driving trailer) leading. All vehicles on the photo display the #XMPR livery.

#Tirano 🇮🇹 standard gauge station in September 2010. An #FS #Trenitalia #ALe803 unit in #XMPR livery is awaiting further duties. There’s a second train station here, just on the other side of the station square: the narrow gauge one, from where #RhB🇨🇭#Bernina line trains depart.

A picture taken in autumn 2004 at #Ancona station: this is a northbound #FS 🇮🇹 #Trenitalia #InterCity in #XMPR livery, travelling along the #Adriatica line. The consist, hauled by an E.444R electric, includes #GranConfort type cars - the ones positioned right behind the loco.

A cloudy, or rather foggy, morning at #Udine 🇮🇹 in December 2000, almost 25 years ago: an #FS Class E.444R “Tartaruga” (🐢) electric will soon depart with a southbound #Trenitalia #InterCity in tow.

A late morning visit of the lovely #Monfalcone 🇮🇹 train station, very charming, even a bit sleepy off peak today. Things seen: a #Mercitalia class E.412 - a former “Brenner Lok”, the #Trenitalia #ICN774 from #Rome on its way to #Trieste, and some vintage #FS “logo inclinato” signage from the 1980s.

#Salerno 🇮🇹 in April 2012: an #FS #Trenitalia 200 kph Class E444R #Tartaruga (🐢) electric is hauling an #InterCity train, displaying the XMPR livery, reflecting the carrier’s visual corporate identity back then.

An #FS 🇮🇹 #Trenitalia #ALn663 diesel railcar twin unit, still displaying its original livery, is seen here at the old San Remo station in November 2000: a #Tenda Line service, if I remember well. It was extended a few kilometres further east, from #Ventimiglia, avoiding a train change for passengers from Torino and heading to the Riviera dei Fiori. Less than a year later, a new track alignment, with a station named Sanremo and located in a tunnel, replaced the old line along the beach.

Good Morning from the #Trenitalia 🇮🇹 #InterCityNotte from #Sicily to #Milan. Breakfast ist served in the sleeper cabin at dawn as we pass the Cinque Terre hilltop villages. What a beautiful day at the Riviera di Levante. No opening windows on the train though, yet last night’s rain did some good cleaning work.

Leaving #Sicily 🇮🇹 for northern #Italy on this #Trenitalia #InterCityNotte, a genuine “cross-country” long distance sleeper service. About 22 hours, if one travels all the way from either #Siracusa or #Palermo through to #Milan.
Settling into the sleeper cabin, which is still in daytime “sofa” configuration.

First train today: #Palermo 🇮🇹 to #Messina by #Trenitalia #InterCity. It’s a push-pull operation: after the ferry-crossing from #Sicily to the mainland, the train will be coupled to a section originating in #Siracusa. I’m travelling in a former, 2nd generation, Grand Confort car, refurbished to an “IC Sun” interior with seat bays for two or four passengers. And: there are vending machines for drinks and snacks on the train, but no @diningcar .

#Rome 🇮🇹 to #Livorno on board #IC510. This is one of #Trenitalia’s (very) long-distance daytime #InterCity trains: 11 hours from #Salerno to #Torino. It hasn’t got a #DiningCar, just an ex-#SelfService carriage with vending machines and a few bar stools.
Passing Roma S. Pietro, we see the track leading into the Vatican. It is used, for instance, if members of the College of Cardinals are travelling as a group by charter train - a stretch of line off limits for the ordinary train buff.

Good morning. After breakfast in the sleeper cabin of the #Trenitalia #InterCityNotte to #Roma 🇮🇹 Termini, a quick hop by train to Roma S. Pietro station, and Saint Peter's Square🇻🇦- still without the crowds, early in the morning. (And a welcome occasion to use the Santa Sede flag icon for once 😉.)

Tonight’s #Trenitalia 🇮🇹 #InterCityNotte #770 from #Trieste is hauled, top’n’tail, by Class E.402B electrics. It includes ex-Z1 1st and 2nd class cars, and an ex “Gran Confort” one, all rebuilt to 2+2 open plan seating. Plus a T3 (ex-T2s) sleeper and two T4 couchettes (ex UIC-X 1st class compartment seaters).

This year’s European Capital of Culture #GO2025 has got a connection by train from #NovaGorica 🇸🇮 in #Slovenia to #Gorizia 🇮🇹 Centrale station in #Italy. The service, which continues to #Venice, is worked by a Class HTR.412 #Trenitalia #Hybrid trainset. Pictures taken earlier today.

#Venezia 🇮🇹 S.L. station in the early 2000s: a #Trenitalia #FS Class E.646 electric is hauling a regional service composed of bi-level cars. In a few moments the train will start crossing the Ponte della Libertà to the mainland, across the lagoon. The name of the bridge is a reference to the end of the Fascist dictatorship in Italy and of the Nazi occupation in 1945.


Italienische Staatsbahn will in Deutschland wachsen

Viele Zugreisende in Deutschland wissen nicht, dass sie indirekt mit der italienischen Staatsbahn unterwegs sind. Rund ein Dutzend deutsche Regionalbahnen gehören zur Trenitalia-Tochter Netinera. Die hat weitere Pläne. Von Nikolaus Nützel.

Seen at Villa S. Giovanni 🇮🇹 about a week ago: an #FS #Trenitalia “Hitachi Blues” Class #HTR412 #hybrid unit on an #InterCity service along the “Ionian Line” from #Bari. These are tri-mode trains, able to operate under 3kV DC catenary, as a diesel unit or even battery powered.

Our #FS 🇮🇹 #Trenitalia #InterCityNotte from #Rome is running on time. #Breakfast is served in the cabin by the sleeping car attendant.
An early morning arrival into #Venice, with a crossing of the lagoon at dawn, is always something very special.

The #FS 🇮🇹 #Trenitalia #InterCity trains running between #Sicily and #Rome don’t have a proper #DiningCar in their consist. However, there’s a snack point (with a coffee machine) in a multi-purpose car. These cars were rebuilt from various types of 1970s #GranConfort or #SelfService diners.

At #Messina 🇮🇹 our #FS #Trenitalia #InterCity is loaded onto a #ferry that takes us to Villa S. Giovanni, in #Calabria, the southern tip of mainland #Italy. The barman on the ferry most likely holds a world record: he is selling food and drinks to hundreds of customers during the short crossing.

Leaving #Sicily 🇮🇹 for mainland #Italy. The #FS #Trenitalia #InterCity service from #Palermo operates in push-pull mode, with the cab-car, the driving trailer, leading. Nice views as we travel along Sicily’s northern coast.

Seen the other day, stopping at #Avignon 🇫🇷 TGV station: a #Trenitalia 🇮🇹 #Frecciarossa 1000 high speed train, on its way from #Paris to #Marseille. It’s got a 🇪🇺 sticker on its nose and, it seems, a very stylish and comfy interior.
👋 to the friendly train driver.

Pictures taken, around the turn of the millennium, on the #Lötschberg 🇨🇭 line, while travelling from #Spiez to #Brig in a Swiss fresh air coach. This is an #InterCity from #Basel, probably IC 331 “Val d’Ossola”, with the first six air-conditioned cars, provided by #FS #Trenitalia, going as far as #Milano 🇮🇹.
