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 I'm sorry you're struggling and hope you can feel better

        self harm, possibly unwanted advice sry

        You ever try substituting with something similar feeling/looking? I used to freeze cranberry juice in a pipette and run the tip across my arm when I was trying to quit cutting, it's cold enough to hurt and leaves a red liquid when it melts on your skin and that kinda helped make the part of my brain that wanted pain and blood shut up a little

        A dark red paint pen and snapping a rubber band on your skin is probably a less cumbersome alternative

        Sorry if that's unwelcomed
