European Railroad Discussion > Riding trains for Christmas in Italy 🇮🇹

A Southern Pacific fan riding trains in Italy this Christmas. Italo train I rode from Rome to Florence Italy Station on the left. Very refreshing to see how the Italians embrace their trains.

Happy Holidays. Buon Natale.

Thanks for the photos -- and the memories. When I lived in Rome (2001-2007) I used public transportation a lot. I remember that a train trip from Florence (SMN) to Rome and then by bus to my home (near Piramide) took only two hours. Amazing! I think rail service has probably improved since I left. 
I bought a yearly pass good on all modes of transportation in and around Rome.When I left it was 256 Euros -- quite a bargain, I thought. It was also good on trains within certain limits.
