Train distance between Rome and Florence?
 

Sorry I know this has been asked a thousand times. I did not find it on an archive search. Can anyone help me?

The fastest train is an ES, which takes 1 hour 35 minutes, and costs about 29 euro for 2nd class.

Hi Sarah-

Assuming "train distance" you mean "how much time does the train take", it is 1hr 36mins by Eurostar. Longer for slower trains.
For train schedule:

thanks everyone I thought it was a 40 minute train ride. Thinking about my next trip back. My friend wants to stay in Rome....but I prefer Florence or even some place smaller. Thought we could do a short stay if any in Rome.

Orvieto? Charming hilltown halfway between the two on the main train line.

Good idea.

Barely a relevant piece of info, since what you really wanted was duration of the trip, but from www.raileurope.com, the _distance_ is listed as 316 km/197 mi.

Part of the compelling reason that it almost never makes sense to try to drive between the two, since the train takes 95 minutes.

Best wishes,

Rex
