THE 'TRENINO VERDE'>TWO WAYS TO TRAVEL ON THE TRAIN
|
|
 There are two ways to travel on the Trenino Verde: chartered trains or scheduled trains. You can even take your bike on the train (see the bottom of the page for further information).
- Chartered Trains
Preferred by groups, companies or agencies that, being able to count on a certain number of passengers, hire the train and personalize the trip (itinerary, schedule, stops). You can "put your own train together", choosing one or more coaches and a steam or diesel locomotive. The price depends on the trip requested and obviously goes up for a long trip or if historical equipment (steam locomotive and period coaches) is used. For example, these are the prices for a 75-km trip, VAT included, with various combinations of rolling-stock:
|
Composition |
Seats |
Fare (€) |

Diesel rail-car
2 diesel rail-cars
Diesel locomotive with 1 coach
Diesel locomotive with 1 period coach
Steam locomotive with 1 coach
