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.

      Youch! Yeah it is sometimes like that. I don’t know how it feels in your body, but make sure to get some rest and if it does more than ache in the morning, take a few days off.

          You’re still on the path to get shredded lets-fucking-go Also if it is something available to you, bouldering/rock climbing is super fun and engages a lot of those muscles too! It is my favorite form of exercise, and is such a queer sport.

          I cannot do it for a few months recovering from surgery, but cannot wait to get back.

            Idk how you would get climbing, probably expensive, plus I bet I'm not strong enough...

            I am still on THE PATH though, I just won't do extra reps tomorrow or whenever. Gotta go really slow. But it feels great every time, I felt awesome.

              If you do bouldering in a gym, all you need is chalk and shoes, that is all!

              And we all get strong just by showing up and doing it. Just my endorsement for climbing, as it fucks as a sport and really supports my autism too. Climbing is so freeing and regulating for me.

                  Give it a try sometime! Most big towns have several gyms, medium/small have one these days. It really fucking rules for my autism, which is part of my theory why so many fellow queerfolk are attracted to the sport. Plus ash, you can be the like me and be the hot queer who also climbs izutsumi-idea
