An #FS 🇮🇹 class #ALe601 unit, photographed at #Roma Termini in April 1983. Among the trains worked by these units: the #Rapido “Peloritano” composed of several sections, i.a. to and from #Palermo and #Siracusa, crossing the Strait of #Messina between #Sicily and the mainland by ferry.

A photo taken in August 1985 at, probably, #Udine 🇮🇹. (Or was it #Mestre 🤔?) An #FS Class 646 electric is hauling a train composed of, back then rather new, MDVC-type cars for regional services. On the left, a Class ALe 840 unit, I think, on local duties.

Some design elements of the #DiningCar on a #DB 🇩🇪 #AutoZug car-carrying train.
The car of the #WRmh132 type was still displaying its #Produktfarben livery from the mid-1980s when I took this photo at #Hamburg #Altona in July 2006: Orient-red, pastel violet, light grey.

While travelling from #Venice to #Milan in November 2002 I came across this #FS #Trenitalia 🇮🇹 class E.402A electric working an eastbound #Intercity. Back then the loco was still displaying its original red and white livery and the “logo inclinato” on its nose.
