ES Italia AV - what is this?
 

I am looking at trains from Rome to Naples and am finding the ES and the IC, which I am familiar with. But one train is listed as ES Italia AV (Eurostar Italia what?) and it is faster than the other two. Does anyone know anything about this? Thx!

It's the newest, fastest train.

<b>A</b>lta <b>V</b>elocita - high speed.

I think it only became operational in March or April of this year.

It is the same train as the &quot;normal&quot; ES, but a few month ago the high-spped line to naples was completed and some trains are routed over it. Those are called AV (Alta Velocita = High Speed)

Cool! I'll book it.
