The ETR 600 is a class of trains built by Alstom, and are used on the routes between Roma-Bolzano and Roma-Trieste. The train tilts, using Pendolino technology, allowing higher speeds to be maintained through corners without causing discomfort to passengers. The trains are operated by Trenitalia, originally under the Frecciargento (Silver Arrow) branding used for trains capable of travelling between 250 km/h and 285 km/h, In 2022 they were rebranded under Frecciarossa (Red Arrow) after the Frecciargento branding was retired.

The ETR 600 has also been adapted for use in China as the China Railway CRH5 Hexie. Initially 60 sets were ordered, of which nine were manufactured by Alstom and 51 by CNR Changchun Railway Vehicles. Since, another 80 sets have been created for a total of 140, operating across China's north from Beijing to Ürümqi.

    new announcement ended up making me sad

    got he/him's acting real classy i see what-the-hell i'm not actually looking to fight anybody. just. took a long time to find a place that actually kinda felt safe enough & suddenly it seems much less so. think i'll be limiting my bear site presence to the trans spaces, for the time being. that's what i'm here for, anyway.

    much love & strength to all my beautiful siblings cat-trans the last couple months have been backbreaking, but it woulda been considerably more difficult w/out this gay lil online living room :3
