- In this video you can enjoy the cab ride - train driver's view from Bologna to Florence along the Bologna-Florence Railway in 4K/60 frames per second.
The Bologna-Florence railway is one of the major links in the Italian rail network, connecting the railways of the Po Valley with the railways of Tuscany and central Italy under the Apennines. It is also known as the Bologna-Florence direttissima-"direttissima" is Italian for "most direct". It was Italy's greatest engineering achievement in the first half of the twentieth century. When it opened in 1934 it significantly shortened the old winding Porrettana line over the Apennines via Pistoia, and was made possible by the 18.507 km-long Apennine Base Tunnel. The new Bologna-Florence high-speed railway was opened on 5 December 2009; it includes 73.8 km of tunnels in its 78.5 km length.
The Apennine Tunnel was the second longest in the world, only 1300 meters less than the Simplon and it is still in the top 20 in the world. It still has an underground station, which is very unusual on a non-urban railway, called Precedenze (Way) station, but it became disused in the 1960s for security reasons and due to lack of traffic.

It's a bit dark but at 36:00, exactly in the middle of the Apennine Tunnel, you might see the "Stazione Precedenze".
It was a real station, equipped with eight simple switches, two English switches, four protective trunks and two shelter tracks for trains that gave way (Precedenze means precedence).
Until 1965 the local trains would even stop here and the locals were using a very long stairway to reach the surface (1900 steps, 1 hour walk time!).
Now the switches are automate and the shelter tracks are abandoned, but the "Stazione Precedenze" sign should still be visible and illuminated, at least it was last time I passed through the tunnel as a passanger (some years ago). They even told me that the
bell of the station is still sounding before a train passes, to alert maintenance personnel.
I tried to link a page on this comment with the history and pictures of the tunnel and it's station but it was discarded by CZcams. If you want to read more write me and I'll give you the link.
@martinomarcello Thank you for all this information. It is very interesting.
So this was something like planned Porta Alpina on the Gotthard Base Tunnel. Access routes are visible on the openstreetmap, I assume they are still used for maintenance access or evacuation. Thank You for this info !!!
Ahah non avevo letto il tuo messaggio e sopra ho scritto qualcosa di simile. Scusa.
what rahul , what bit dark ? tunnel u see
Qualcuno ha mai visto biglietti da o per PRECEDENZE? Grazie ancora per la collaborazione
In this base tunnel, there are an ancient passenger station named "precedenze". It Was at the exact middle of the tunnel. When ,in the 50', was active, passengers must do around 900 steps to arrive under at the station. Today, in video, if you see good, you can see something strange in the middle of tunnel and by the train to. I passed here some times and I saw.
@marcochiani-zf7kn Thanks.
You can see Precedenze station at exactly 36:00
Grazie per aver pubblicato questa linea; bella, complimenti!
Buona giornata e buona Domenica.
Ciao.
@DavideZerillo You are very welcome. Wishing you a great Sunday too.
Questo video è uno dei più belli in assoluto, linea storica aperta negli anni '30, dove correva l'ETR 220, costruito appena prima della seconda guerra mondiale, che già allora in 5 ore e mezza collegava Roma e Milano. Purtroppo Questa linea ha un brutto ricordo nella memoria degli Italiani, la strage terroristica nel 1974 del treno rapido 904 ITALICUS, all'uscita della galleria a San Benedetto val di Sambro, una pagina nera dei trasporti in Italia.
Grazie davvero ❤❤

@luigibrunomanzini253 Thank you very much for your comment. It is a great and important line with amazing infrastructure, considering the year of the construction.
anche l'ITALICUS Roma-Monaco,alla stazione di San Benedetto Val di Sambro c'è un rottame che fa da monumento commemorativo
L'ETR 220 non è stato costruito prima della seconda guerra mondiale, quello era il 200. Il 220 è degli anni 60
Riprese ottime, come al solito ! Ho avuto modo di constatare, sull'Appenino, tratte o sezioni di linea molto lunghe con relativi preavvisi: penso che sia voluto un ben maggiore distanziamento dei convogli come avevo già visto sulla nuova Pontebbana ! Grazie a Voi per il tutto !

Note: North Entrance of Appennine Tunnel min:31
In the night between 03/04 August 1974 a bomb placed inside a carriage of the Rome-Munich Express train exploded inside the tunnel causing the death of 12 people and the wounding of 48 others. Luckily the driver managed to bring the train at the San Benedetto val di Sambro station, thus making rescue operations less complex
@domenicobecchio6459 Thank you for that information.
La stage dell'ITALICUS 😢
@@RailRelaxationIn the exact same place on 23rd December 1984 another bomb went off aboard the train number 904 from Naples to Milan, killing 16 people and wounding 267. The killers acted probably on order of the Mafia boss Totò Riina.

@antonellocolavecchio2454 I have all of them on my bucket list, I am not sure yet when will go back to Italy.
Very nice video. Thank You. I think the on-board SCMT equipment had some malfunction. I can't explain all the emergency braking. As it was leaving Bologna, it may be that the engineer did not pre recognize a code absence before the switch, but the others?
For Italian followers: Credo che l'apparecchiatura di bordo SCMT avesse qualche malfunzionamento. Non mi spiego tutte quelle frenate d'emergenza. Mentre stava uscendo da Bologna, può darsi che il macchinista non abbia pre riconosciuto un'assenza codice prima dello scambio, ma le altre?
@silvioferrero8078 I am not sure what was happening and why the breaking.

In uscita da Bologna il mancato prericonoscimento (SCMT) ha causato l'arresto del treno. Una nota: quando in testa treno si trova un semipilota potresti citare il locomotore in spinta. Bellissime riprese... complimenti.
@stefanogiusti5466 Thank you for your comment.
Great video al always. You didn't indicate the category of the train, but I assume that it was a long distance intercity which doesn't enter to Firenze SMN. I have a bunch of questions for those who know the line better (I'm only an occasional traveler in Italy): before the construction of the HS line the speeds were considerably higher (it still looks in good condition and according to the signs the line is still enabled for 175-180 km/h in tunnels) and now the train runs for most of the time at around 110 km/h except for a few moments near Calenzano. Then, I think that Italy must have a serious problem with the system of signalling, as the train (I would expect) with priority is often slowed down or even stopped (also right after departing Bologna). Or is it maybe the consequence of poorly coordinated timetables which let the slower train block the faster one behind it? Or are they deliberately slowing down the trains on this line to convince the passengers that they should take a Freccia?
@maxart3392 Thank you for your comment. I am sure there are a lot of viewers that know line better than me that can respond to you.
The line is currently being completely refurbished, tunnels are being enlarged and the roadbed is being lowered in order to make the line compatible with the P/C 80 (high cube) loading gauge. Also, new signalling and power supply will be installed. I think that currently there might be a generalized speed restriction because of this work even if the line still has an official top speed of 175-180 km/h (at least in some sections). The opening of the high-speed line meant that long-distance trains on the old Direttissima could be replaced by much needed local or semi-local trains that before couldn't be squeezed in because the line was absolutely full, although some Intercity trains and most night trains still pass through it. Given that local trains too normally run at up to 160 km/h I don't think there isn't any deliberate "political" speed reduction besides restrictions due to engineering works. As for the train being stopped, you may notice that it happens quite abruptly and not necessarily in front of a signal, in fact I have the impression that such stops are triggered by the train protection system that for some reason misses some track beacon, I wonder if it was that specific train that was faulty. Poor timetable coordination might happen, especially if there is some traffic disruption and/or a train is late, but in that case you would see lots of yellow and red lights, not automatic brake applications...

... purtroppo sino all'avvento dell'AV (avversata da tanta miopia) era la principale linea di collegamento tra Nord e Sud Italia, come si vede dal filmato, se le velocità indicate sono corrette, raramente si son superati i 120 Km/h.
Nice video but there is an error.
The tracks for the Pisa direction line are immediately after Firenze Castello on the right and not on the left.
The two tracks on the left that then pass over the tracks, used exclusively by high-speed trains to and from Bologna, which allow you to bypass the normal line allowing transit to tracks 3 and 4 of Firenze Rifredi for High speed trains to arrive at Firenze Santa Maria Novella without cutting the road to the trains that skip Santa Maria Novella station
@Superazzola Thank you very much for the explanation.
@@RailRelaxation I add that that beetween Firenze Castello and Firenze Rifredi there will be the future entrance for the new underground station of Florence that will be used only High speed train (like Bologna Centrale) and the underground line will come out near the station Firenze Campo Marte allowing to the High Speed Trains to avoid change direction in Santa Maria Novella Station reducing much travel time. Some months ago are restarted the works of construction that few yers ago are stopped for bureaucratic problems.
@Superazzola Thank you very much for all that valuable information. Reducing the travel time will be great.
Is entrance to future underground Rifredi is tunnel visible at 1:08:13 (immediately left)?
You have to do a video Bologna - Bari in three or four part in an intercity or a Frecciarossa.
@stefanobazzoffia1496 Good suggestion. Who knows....
Question: why did the train stop a couple of times inside the Apennine Base Tunnel?
I don't know exactly, but I imagine that is was stopped by the controller, you can see the red light in the tunnel.
@@RailRelaxation The line is used by many fright trains. They must reach the next station in order to be overtaked.
@fredpalmer260 Thank you for your answer.
The line is operated under the "Automatic electrical block with coded current" regime. There was evidently a slower train, such as a freight train, occupying the section (block) immediately downstream. Years ago, inside the "Grande Galleria dell'Appennino" there was the famous station called "PRECEDENZE" (precedence) which was connected to the town of Ca' di Landino via a staircase of over a thousand steps and two inclined lifts. It now functions as a "Communication Post" between the odd track and the even track and is remotely controlled by the DCO (Central Operations Manager).
NB: on this line the automatic electrical lockout is not linked, which means that each intermediate lockout signal (table P which stands for "Permissive") is preceded by an isolated warning signal, i.e. not coupled with the previous one automatic electric lock signal. This explains why the signal in the tunnel went directly from red to green, without first going to yellow, as happens with the automatic chained electrical block.
Inside the long Apennine tunnel, and only in it, there are in the recesses on both sides of the line little blue lights, as if they were a kind of warning lights. Does someone know what they could be?
They indicate the position of emergency lighting push buttons. They used to be required only in longer tunnels, now they are slowly being installed on shorter ones too.
Ok.... my dad says if U could do : Turin- Aosta
Ancona- Roma...?!
Thks very much x the Good Job! 👍🏻👏🏼
@BeardyChild Thank you for the suggestions. I wish you and your dad a great weekend!
Can anyone tell me why the train was brought to a halt right at the Tuscany/Emilia Romagna border in the tunnel. I may have seen some yellow coloured signals but no red ones. How did the driver know to resume? The second halt near the south entrance was obvious due to the red danger signal.
The one in the middle of the tunnel seems to be an automatic brake application started by the on-board ATC/PTC system. The line is being thoroughly refurbished and I'm wondering if there was some mismatch in the data transmitted to the train or if it missed some balise/transponder, maybe a temporary one meant to enforce some speed restriction. Either that or possibly some fault on the train. As far as I know they are pretty sensitive and a minor misalignment could be enough to trigger a brake application. If that's the case, the driver has to go through some steps and then can resume on their own.

Your editing could be better: the flashing info like how long a tunnel is, has much too big fonts and is way too bright and stays on for much too long, it is extremely distracting especially going into those very long tunnels.
Same distraction with the speedometer, it also is too big and too bright, they all take away from enjoying the spectacular ride.
I suggest you consider making the info twice as small and 50% dimmer. ♥

@@philippedesaint-martin4815 😊
The most striking thing about these Italian cab-rides is how empty the platforms are. Station after station; and they're completely deserted. If this is any guide to the number of passengers, then the railways must be operating at an enormous loss. It only goes to show that you can have wonderful infrastructure, but if it doesn't provide the journeys that people need to make, then nobody will use it.
@margaretjones777 Actually I usually film the videos during the weekends and public holidays and normally there is less people using the trains. Looking at the numbers, lots of people in Italy use trains to commute and also to travel longer distances, with the high speed lines between big cities.
Ridership is actually quite high, even higher than before the pandemic. This train probably ran quite close behind some local service that may have picked up most passengers. Also, since this is a non-stopping service people wouldn't be there just to watch it. Finally, that line is being thoroughly refurbished and there have been quite some service cancellations/substitutions that may have caused a temporary loss of ridership. That said, both Trenitalia and RFI (the network manager) are both making a quite nice net profit so...

Trenitalia is a partially privatized subsidiary of Italian Railways (FSI), created in 2000, which functions as a "train operating company" in much the same way as the UK rail franchisees - indeed it even owns 30% of the "Avanti West Coast" UK rail franchise, from which it generates a small proportion of its profits. In 2022 Trenitalia made a profit of 120 million Euros, which sounds great until you realize that this is only a very small part of the picture. As in Britain, so in Italy the profitability of franchisees is determined, less by the performance of the company, than by the "tariff" which they pay in order to access the national rail infrastructure. In Italy the government has set this tariff at a generously low level, partly to encourage cheap fares (and thereby increase rail usage) and partly also to provide a healthy return for Trenitalia's shareholders. As I'm sure you will appreciate, the financial performance of Trenitalia tells us little about the true cost of running Italy's rail network because most of this has been shouldered by country's taxpayers. And this is where the sums start to get really nasty.
A Brussels report, commissioned in 2021, concluded that Italy's railways had cost Italian taxpayers more than 480 billion (that's 480,000,000,000) Euros since Italy joined the Euro in 1993, a truly staggering sum that accounts for almost 20% of Italy's National Debt, itself an eye-watering 160% of GDP, one of the highest in the developed world, and vastly worse than the situation in other major European economies. Now, we can argue as to whether this expenditure has been justified, but there can be no dispute that Italy's debt mountain has had a crippling effect on the prosperity of its citizens. To put this in perspective; since 1993 Italy has grown by 11%, France and Germany by more than 35%, the UK and Spain by more than 45%, the USA and Canada by more than 50%, and Australia by more than 55%. So, yes, Trenitalia is profitable, but the true cost of Italy's railways has been horrific. Those empty platforms are indeed telling us something.
@@margaretjones777 While the data you reported are correct, let me say they are totally unrelated each other and not able to support the theory that trains in Italy are travelling empty based on an random video.
In addition to what Geeric above already explained, let's not forget that between the 80 km of rail between Bologna and Firenze there are basically just few mountain villages with a small population, for instance arriving near Firenze suburb (Sesto Fiorentino) you can notice passengers boarding a local train. Anyway let's stick on numbers just click on google "Railway passengers transport statistic" of Eurostat and look at year 2019 as latest reliable data, Italy is the 3rd country as number of passengers/km of rails after France and Germany, Spain follows with a much lower number end then all other countries. Same numbers you can find in Wikipedia where UK is between Germany and Italy. Just have a train trip in Italy either IC or on local train during peak hour and you realize that problem in Italy are not the empty stations.
You make a fair point. In fact I know from personal experience that some trains in Italy are extremely busy. I guess my real argument concerns the loss-making nature of rail travel in general, and the broader question of how much it is reasonable for a country to subsidize its railways. I would argue that Italy has gone too far down this route, and the EU seems to agree with me.

Ma quello che non capisco è: tutti questi idioti che scrivono con la vernice scritte incomprensibili sui muri che cosa ne ricavano?
Pensa a quelli che scrivono commenti su video di treni su CZcams quanto ci ricavano 😂 due esercizi in futilità
