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.

    i grew up in a fairly messed up neighborhood. had i been transing it up from an early age, we probably wouldn't be having this conversation. thinking back to it like this, my heart breaks for the queer kids of today.

    thank you, friend cat-trans a bunch of us have got this queer commune thing going on in the mountains, so things are pretty wonderful in that regard :3 just kinda took forever for me to find where i belong. i believe in you & wish upon you all the good feels i've been able to experience & more!

    if all else fails, feel free to return to this thread meow-hug
