Stazione Ventimiglia (13) - 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. A number of locomotives and shunters can be seen stabled such as Breda built shunter D245.2263 which was standing idle in a bay alongside platform 1.
