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.

    meow-hug Thank you for everything that you have done just for our little gay nook of the internet, kristina. I hope to get into more queer organizing stuff in the future, and there are many like me who just don't know where to start.

    I have felt that burnout from prior organizing(not queer) in the past, and it really helps in those times for me to take a step back and find love with your comrades, whatever that might look like for you. It's why we're in the game. The machine is constantly trying to grind us down, and we have to be sharpened rather than dulled by it. If I want to dm you on the matrix, how would I do that? I don't see you on the trachat, not under kristina at least.

    I won't be able to do too much for a little while, as I am just recovering from FFS two weeks ago. But will we be back to full strength soon enough.
