Hi DAR!<BR><BR>Go to this web site - www.fs-on-line.com<BR>The site for Italian train schedules. <BR><BR>Most countries have on line schedules available & you can find them by searching the web or searching this site. Most of them have been listed <BR>here many, many times.<BR><BR>The Rail Europe web site lists schedules, but not all trains. I think they limit it to longer, major routes or express trains.<BR><BR>Sorry, can't help with buses. Although it has been discussed here before that there are public buses between Siena/San Gimignano. Perhaps the tourism offices of the major cities can provide that if you really need it in advance.<BR><BR>Also, most posters here highly recommend a car for Tuscany/Umbria-- myself included. It's easy driving. <BR><BR>Buon viaggio!

Gimignano.<BR><BR>S. Gimignano-Florence:<BR>This usually involves a change of bus at POGGIBONSI.<BR><BR>Timetables for these routes are on:<BR>www.turismoverde.com<BR>www.comune.siena.it/train<BR>www.comune.poggibonsi.siena.it/citta/giro2<BR><BR>Let me know if I can be of more help ...<BR><BR>Steve<BR><BR>
