This time on RE, we're embarking on a journey through the Italian railway system, a network that has undergone significant changes over the years - to become the impressive system it is today.
As we always do in the Railway Nation videos, here we tried to make a comprehensive overview of the railway system in this beautiful European country, which is, we must admit, from the transportation perspective, quite interesting for discussion. Not only in terms of railways...
Anyway, we discussed the Italian railway's development from a historical perspective, its organization, key players and market segments, and of course, the performance of both, the freight and passenger transport carriers.
In some of the following videos, we'll also try to continue this topic, with a discussion about the country's high-speed rail system and exploring the ambitious Italian-French megaproject, connecting the cities of Lyon and Turin via the new Mont d'Ambin Base Tunnel, through the Alps.
