Buon Giorno!
In 2023, Trenitalia launched a new brand for its touristic trains, Treni Turistici Italiani... they have refurbished and revived older rolling stock and transformed it into a luxurious train serving several destinations in Italy. I was onboard the first summer train of the Espresso Cadore, linking Rome to the Dolomites...
You're not ready for how good it is!

I'm really impressed that even the menu was included in the price, that's insane! I was in Rome a couple of months ago but I think I might just go back now.

Love the dining car. Better than a cardboard box at your seat, which is what we get here in New South Wales. And you're right about young people. When I was a volunteer on a tourist railway in Tasmania (which no longer has public passenger trains) many of the younger people had never been on a train in their life. They were really excited.

The TTI is actually some kind of joint venture between three Gruppo FS companies: Trenitalia, Mercitalia (who helps with the shunting personal, which Trenitalia lacks) and Fondazione FS, the national historic and museum vehicles operator. For example: both D 445 hauling the train on the non-electrified part are from Fondazione FS historic fleet, and painted in original colour scheme. For the winter season, when the A/C is not needed, Fondazione FS also added a MU sleeping car from historic fleet, the only one restored in original state, painted in old TEN colours.

From the '60 till 2012 there was a seasonal (and daily during the peak weeks of the winter-summer seasons, with two trainsets running the same route) link between Rome and Calalzo with "auto al seguito" that mean you were able to load your private car on a wagon and then drive it from Calalzo to Cortina. Unfortunately the service was extremely costly for the FS to run and due to passengers numbers dropping steadly from the beginning of the millennium, they decided to suppress it. I was born in Calalzo and seeing this huge intrest and hype about my beloved Cadore railway line is great!

So after the revolutionary break throughs in rail transportation that brought us the treno Italia and the frecciarosa traveling at a speed of three hundred kilometers per hour some people have become nostalgic and are yearning for the era when these trains moved at a speed of sixty kilometers per hour that they recall as the golden era of rail. Thank you very much and enjoy your afternoon ☺️☺️

@00Zy99 9 дней назад

Now THIS is how you run a choo-choo! Great food, great experience, good price. If you assume (roughly) 65 for transportation, 80 for a hotel, 20 for dinner and 15 for breakfast, then you are already at 180. After that, you are paying 17 for the "experience" and the convenience. THAT IS A TOTAL BARGAIN. If this kind of service ran every day on every reasonable route in every country, people would just USE it.

Just out of curiosity, I looked up how the €192 fare compares with London to Edinburgh, a slightly further distance, on the regular Caledonian Sleeper 😴 . Seems that the regular fare is (the equivalent of) about €165, and that's for an ordinary bunk with no particular extras. So this, even though it's a luxury service, doesn't seem outrageously expensive

Nice video, well documented. The train livery, anyway, is inspired more to the mithical "rapido" "Treno Azzurro" (blue train limited express) with a very pale blue instead of pearl gray on E444 and a ligher shade than the "Blu Orientale" of the E444. As for the preserved rolling stock and the level of the restoration, please note that TTI CEO is the same Ing. Luigi Cantamessa that's the director of Fondazione FS, and you can be sure of one thing about this man, he does love FS and trains. Sad you lost the best part of the trip, to Calalzo, but we experienced severe bad weather that caused service interruptions. And the future does not look brighter as for the weather due climate changes.

Refurbished cars from Thello means that that train will never come back again, that's sure! Just one example: I live in Udine, not far from Venice, and should go to visit my wife's sister in Paris. With the good old Thello it would have been easy and comfortable; instead, I should leave in the morning at 6 o'clock and arrive in Paris after 19, with change in Milan and in Zurich or Basel. Night option could be Udine-Stuttgart in nightjet, then Stuttgart-Paris in TGV, but for a huge price....😩

I have traveled many times on the intercity night from Milan to Syracuse, with deluxe cabins, excelsior, and even with four-seat cabins. the service is poor at various points: for example, the seats and beds, are too hard, have no padding. back pain, and he does not rest well. often train controllers disturb many times, knocking on doors even late at night. some capitreno often do not provide all the services they should give to customers, as promised in the train ticket: for example the newspaper, the welcome drink, and a and a hearty breakfast. The best night trains I know in Europe are in the UK, France and Austria.

I don't speak Italian and just assumed for a long time that it was named as such because it's a terminus. However the last time I was at Roma Termini I crossed the square in front of it to the museum at what was once a Roman bath complex, the Terme di Diocleziano. I then figured out where the station is named after 😊.

Lack of shower on a newly "built" train is a bit sad. But it would mean cannibalizing one room per car. Hopefully this nice train remains accessible. When a train becomes too popular and you need to book it 2 years in advance it becomes useless to people planning holidays at last minute (a bit like Nightjet trains). Out of curiosity, if one does not know Italian, it is very hard to travel on Italian trains?
