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.

    Ngl it is kinda lame how many hexbears are on amerikkkan time. Wanna see posts...

    Death to the posting hegemony amerikkka

    I went to a irl queer meetup recently (not covid safe, but I'm just making the most of my short immunity period I guess) and it sucked seeing in real time how the most privileged people in the group were also the ones that were the most willing to share things. So inspired by the desire to talk over white cis gay men, I'm trying to share things instead of just dismissing my experiences as not inherently valuable or even real, which is what I was taught by my wonderful biological family. Anyway we'll see if that results in me posting more at non US times lol

      I care not for the plight of the white cis gay man. The best part of bearzone is its diversity of perspectives.

        It was so typical. Business degree? Check. Suburban "my neighbours are so scary!" horror fan? Check. Basing a whole 5 minute monologue on the idea that gayness is exclusively a sex thing? Check. kril-drained
