New Rome-Pompeii high-speed train launched
A high-speed train service is now connecting Rome to Pompeii in under two hours.
A collaboration between the Italian Ministry of Culture and Italian State Railways, it operates each Sunday.
It is expected to boost tourism to the archaeological site.
The direct Rome to Pompeii service is operated on a Frecciarossa 1000 train, the flagship in the Trenitalia fleet.
It departs Roma Termini every Sunday morning at 8:53 and arrives in Pompeii at 10:40.
During the journey, passengers can learn about Pompeii’s history from a video played on the onboard monitors.
On arrival, a Pompeii Link shuttle bus takes passengers to the archaeological site.
Day trips are feasible with the return journey to Rome departing at 18:40.
There are about 50 Frecciarossa and regional services that currently run between Rome and Pompeii, via Napoli Centrale station.
