Buongiorno everybody!
After having an absolute AMAZING experience on the Espresso Cadore back in June video here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PQysg1_Y14&t=248s
You have no idea how much I was thrilled to try their day time trains… especially to the French Riviera, a line I know… very well!

Enjoy, and don’t forget to like/leave a comment to help the channel 🙂

  1. Dans quelques semaines, je vais faire le trajet de Milan à St Raphaël. J'ai hâte d'y être. Surtout la partie qui longe les monts Esterell.

  2. Such a fantastic train!!
    I don't think they've been super successful on an economic level, but they've just started and they'll always be a niche product… if they break even it's already a lot of work for me, but I really hope so because TTI has done a fantastic job offering such a great service and basically a completely new product on the market (without public money, what's more)

  3. Good heavens. This train goes against the modern trend by having comfortable seats and a real dining car.

  4. What a lovely journey…such beautiful scenery! The ride in the engine was an enviable treat. Thank you for your consistently stellar content!💖

  5. Note that at the Franco-Italian border, French electric locomotives switch from 25000 volts AC to 3000 volts DC. The catenary type changes to the Italian style. You made the announcement a bit early. The train was still under French catenary. Fabulous video though! 👍

  6. 13:56
    Why can't more trains have proper coffee machines?
    Also I think the Italians used to have locos compatible with the French DC network, but I guess they don't have them anymore. (or not certified)

  7. Excellent video from one of the top ambassadors for rail travel. Didn’t know about TTI before this video but will sure be looking out for them in future.
    One minor nitpick 322 kms is around 200 rather than 122 miles.

  8. Ce serai trop bien que cette ligne devienne permanente 😍
    le Lourdes/ Venise c'est réservé au pèlerins c'est ça ? Car j'habite a côté et jamais entendu parler 😅
