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.

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.

Gricignano-Teverola – Maddaloni-Marcianise Smistamento – Cancello

[85] (150D3-151C3) IT18/133

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.

Madonnelle - Volla (Circumvesuviana)

[508] (153A2) IT18/134

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

  • 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 most overnight trains via Salerno which do not call at Napoli Centrale; these run via Cancello.
