FL1 (Lazio Regional Railways)
The FL1 (until 2012 FR1) is a regional rail route forming part of the Lazio regional railways network ( it, ferrovie regionali del Lazio), which is operated by Trenitalia, and converges on the city of Rome, Italy. The route operates over the infrastructure of the Florence–Rome railway, the Pisa–Livorno–Rome railway and the Rome–Fiumicino railway. Within the territory of the ''comune'' of Rome, it plays the role of a commuter railway. It is estimated that on average about 65,000 passengers travel on an FR1 train each day. The designation FR1 appears only in publicity material (e.g. public transport maps), in the official timetables, and on signs at some stations. The electronic destination boards at stations show only the designation "R1".

Regional Rail
Regional rail, also known as local trains and stopping trains, are passenger rail services that operate between towns and cities. These trains operate with more stops over shorter distances than inter-city rail, but fewer stops and faster service than commuter rail. Regional rail services operate beyond the limits of urban areas, and either connect similarly-sized smaller cities and towns, or cities and surrounding towns, outside or at the outer rim of a suburban belt. Regional rail normally operates with an even service load throughout the day, although slightly increased services may be provided during rush-hour. The service is less oriented around bringing commuters to the urban centers, although this may generate part of the traffic on some systems. Other regional rail services operate between two large urban areas but make many intermediate stops. In North America, "regional rail" is not recognized as a service classification between "commuter rail" and "inter-city ra ...

Rome–Fiumicino Railway
The Rome–Fiumicino railway is an urban railway line in Rome. History The railway link between Rome and Fiumicino was officially opened on 6 May 1878, when a branch of the Livorno–Rome railway (also called the ''ferrovia Tirrenica''—"Tyrrhenian Railway"), which was completed in 1859. It ran from Ponte Galeria station to Fiumicino, where a station was located for passenger traffic and there was a connection for freight traffic to the river port, ending at Fiumicino Porto Canale goods yard. Electrification with overhead line at 3000 V DC was activated on 14 November 1938. Goods traffic began to decline from the 1960s, due to the decline of the Fiumicino river port. In 1990, rail traffic ended on the link to the river port, but it was another ten years before it was closed. However, the line began to assume a certain importance for passenger traffic with the opening of Fiumicino Airport. A study was carried out in September 1960 into the possible doubling of the line and the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Cross-city Route
A cross-city route is a public transport route linking one suburb (or satellite) of a city or town with another, usually relatively distant, suburb (or satellite). Such a route can be operated by various forms of public transport, including commuter rail, rapid transit, trams (streetcars), trolleybuses, or motor buses. Forms of cross-city routes Through routes Typically, a cross-city route will be a combination of two radial routes, each linking one of the outer termini with the city or town's central business district (CBD). Such a route is sometimes called a ''through route''. (Note: The term ''cross-city route'' is not used in American English, and the similar American English term ''crosstown route'' has a distinctly different meaning, referring to a transport route that does not serve the city centre and runs generally perpendicular to radial routes.) A public transport operator may combine radial routes into a through route because terminating a route in a city or t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
