Trenitalia seating chart?
 
Hi,
I purchased tickets in advance of our travel to Italy in September, and wanted to see where my seats are on the train but can't seem to find a seating chart online......
I am on a train from Roma Termini to Firenze SMN, Firenze SMN to Napoli Centrale, and from Napoli Centrale to Roma Termini.
Any help you could provide would be great, thank you!

There are many trains between these cites. What type of train?

I bought the tickets on Italiarail.com and I'm looking at the train tickets; this is the only information that looks pertinent (other than the dates/seats)?
(Rome to Florence) Train 9404 EAV; takes 1hr 35min.
(Florence to Naples) Train 9507 EAV; takes 3hr.
(Naples to Rome) Train 9526 EAV; takes 1hr. 10min.

I just took the train Rome to Florence in May. Train 9404 is a Eurostar.

I purchased my tickets through RailEurope though.

What class did you purchase? 1st and 2nd class should have seat numbers. Not sure about the other classes.

I *think* RailEurope and ItaliaRail sell the same trains, but I could be wrong.
I had the intention of buying first class, but just wanted to confirm that was indeed what we got. (the seat numbers on each of the tickets are in the 50s)

You won't be able to tell by seat number, since the different classes are in different carriages and the differnet carriages have the same seat numbers.

There should be a designation "Classe" or perhaps just "Cl." with a 1 for first class or 2 for second. These article from Slow Travel about how to read tickets and other train info may be helpful to you.
