Your journey involves a change of train at Roma Termini and at Naples. <BR>(You can book a through ticket FCO-Naples).<BR><BR>From Rome FCO airport there are trains every 30 mins to Roma Termini. <BR><BR>At Roma Termini there are Eurostars to Naples at 08.45, 09.45, and 10.45.<BR>(For full timetable and fares see<BR>www.trenitalia.it).<BR><BR>The 09.45 ES arrives at Napoli Piazza Garibaldi station, from where Sorrento (Circumvesuviana) trains leave approx every 30 mins. <BR><BR>Other trains arrive at Napoli Centrale, from where you follow signs downstairs for the CIRCUMVESUVIANA.<BR><BR>Hope this helps ...<BR><BR>Steve<BR> <BR><BR>

John - for trains from FCO to Rome, enter<BR>Fiumicino Aeroporto & Roma Termini<BR>(They are every 30 minutes at 07 and 37 past the hour).<BR><BR>For your other train, enter<BR>Roma Termini & Napoli<BR><BR>N.B. Trains for Napoli Centrale and Piazza Garibaldi are both O.K., but NOT trains for Napoli Campi Flegrei.<BR><BR>Hope this helps ...<BR><BR>Steve<BR>
