do I need train tickets in advance?
Going to Italy for 2 weeks at the beginning of June - flying into Milan - taking the train to Torino, then to Varenna, then to Mantova and then to Milan. Do you think I ned to get my train tickets in advance? (I'm inclined to say no)

Need? No. One less thing to make time to do whilst you're over there? Definitely. I had my tickets on my PDA and never had a problem. Mind you, God help my mortal soul jhad I lost and/or dropped my PDA. But that's another story.

BTN-
Just checking the Trenitalia website regarding trains from Milan to Torino (05/31). Some trains say I can buy (shopping cart), some say no. Does the no mean I can't buy online? I can't imagine every seat on 3 trains to Torino are completely sold out. Any thoughts?

They aren't sold out. The R, IR, D trains can't be purchased in advance online unless it's within one week. Try entering a date within the next week if you want to price these trains. You can't reserve seats on these types of trains.
