A north to east curve allows trains to run direct between the high-speed lines from Napoli to Roma and to Salerno without reversing at Napoli Centrale.  There may be greater use of this line after the station at Napoli-Afragola opens, allowing high-speed trains to serve the Napoli area without calling at Napoli Centrale.  Following years of delay, the station may open later in 2017 or in 2018.

Revision as of 20:22, 23 June 2017

Introduction

This list is based on the timetable in force from 10 December 2023. Although the timetable is shown as valid until 8 June 2024, most long-distance services are shown as operating only until March. Such trains are not indicated by note 'D' (for a service only running on certain dates), because it is a reasonable expectation that their period of operation will be extended or a similar service is provided instead. It is assumed that the timetable will continue to be updated and reissued regularly, as has been the case since summer 2020. Users are recommended to check the Trenitalia website to ensure they are using the latest version of the timetable.

Table numbers quoted here are from In Treno Tutt'Italia, the official Trenitalia timetable. Standard abbreviations are explained here.

Map references for each route entry are given in parentheses ( ). References prefixed "ERA-E" refer to the European Railway Atlas (All-Europe Edition) by M.G. Ball. References prefixed "ERA-R" refer to the European Railway Atlas (Regional Series: Book 2) by M.G. Ball. References prefixed "S+W", or in italic, refer to Atlante ferroviaro d'Italia e Slovenia by Schweers + Wall.

Two useful symbols exist which show the booked route for trains not calling at a station: in the middle of the train column, a vertical bar "|" means that the train passes through the station without stopping, whereas a middle dot "·" means that the train does not pass through that station but instead takes a different route.

Obscure services

1º Bivio Caserta Nord - 2º Bivio Caserta Nord (Interconnessione Caserta Nord)

[80] (77C4) IT17/131

This 6.1km connecting line allows trains on the AV/AC line from Roma to Napoli to connect with the old main line from Roma to Napoli via Caserta and is used by high-speed services between Roma and Lecce which call at Caserta and not Napoli Centrale. There is no passenger use of the AV/AC connection at Cassino Sud.

Frecciargento 8303/8305 08:05 Roma Termini - Lecce
Frecciargento 8315 14:55 Roma Termini - Lecce
Frecciargento 8319 16:55 Roma Termini - Benevento
Frecciargento 8323 18:00 Roma Termini - Lecce
Frecciargento 8300 Benevento - 06:32 Caserta - Roma Termini
Frecciargento 8302 Lecce - 10:10 Caserta - Roma Termini
Frecciargento 8314 Lecce - 16:02 Caserta - Roma Termini
Frecciargento 8324/8326 Lecce - 21:10 Caserta - Roma Termini

Aversa avoiding line: S. Marcellino-Frignano – Gricignano-Teverola

[3, 85] (150C3-150D3) IT17/132

This west to east curve is used by trains between the Formia and Caserta lines, to avoid reversal at Aversa. It is used by some trains between Roma and Caserta, because the Formia route is faster than the original main line via Cassino. However, Alta Velocita trains between Roma, Bari and Lecce via Caserta use the new high speed line and not this route. It is also used by trains running direct to Cancello via IT17/133.

D2: Not via this route on 11 June and 9 July 2017

Gricignano-Teverola – Maddaloni-Marcianise Smistamento – Cancello

[85] (150D3-151C3) IT17/133

This relatively new line provides a connection between the Roma - Napoli main line via the coast and the inland main line via Cassino, bypassing Caserta and serving the new Maddaloni-Marcianise marshalling yard en route. The following train uses the Aversa avoiding line (IT17/132 above) and this route.

MO ICN1559 23:00 Roma Termini - Siracusa

Madonnelle - Volla (Circumvesuviana)

[508] (153A2) IT17/134

This south to north route allows trains to run between the line to San Giorgio a Cremano via Villa Visconti and the line towards Baiano without reversal.

There was an extended period when these trains appeared in the Circumvesuviana timetable but did not run. However, the service was observed operating in March 2017.

As and when the line is extended from Volla to the new station on the high-speed line at Afragola, there may be a service throughout the day, but it could be many years before this happens.

SuX 1546/1949 San Giorgio a Cremano - 16:40 Madonnelle – Acerra
SuX 1950/1551 Acerra - 17:29 Volla - San Giorgio a Cremano

Linea Monte Vesuvio: Napoli Centrale (Bivio/PC Casoria) – Salerno

[86] (153A2-154D2) IT17/135

This line is used by all trains between Napoli and Salerno which are not scheduled to stop intermediately. The southeast end of the line is also used thus:

  • Salerno – Bivio S Lucia: All trains between Salerno and Nocera Inferiore not scheduled to stop intermediately.
  • Salerno – Bivio Sarno: All trains between Salerno and Sarno. This includes overnight trains via Salerno which do not call at Napoli Centrale; these run via Cancello.

Linea Monte Vesuvio: Napoli avoiding line

[3] (153A1) IT17/136

A north to east curve allows trains to run direct between the high-speed lines from Napoli to Roma and to Salerno without reversing at Napoli Centrale.

Frecciargento 8353 17:30 Roma Termini - Reggio di Calabria
Frecciarossa 9653 Milano Centrale - 23:37 Napoli Afragola - Salerno
Frecciarossa 9606 05:20 Salerno - Milano Centrale
Frecciargento 8352 Reggio di Calabria - 10:00 Salerno - Roma Termini
