Stazione Ventimiglia (6) - 7 Settembre 2013

Ventimiglia/Vintimille is where the French/Italian border blurs especially in these days of freedom of movement within (most of) the EU. French trains are as common as Italian examples with regular services leaving for the neighbouring country. The Italian services tend to be locomotive powered (push/pull with driving trailers) and the French TER services operated by multiple units. In this view are a Trenitalia driving trailer and an SNCF/TER Class Z 26500 unit (443) with Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur/Principauté de Monaco branding. The shot also contains some of the atmosphere of the station.
