===Bologna avoiding line===
This avoiding line runs to the north and east of Bologna, linking the conventional Milano, Verona, Padova, Ancona and Firenze lines. Note that AV trains run via the Passante line under the main station (platforms 16-19) whether or not they call at Bologna Centrale. Use of the avoiding lines has decreased considerably since the opening of the Passante. Conventional (non-AV) trains not calling at Bologna Centrale may well run non-stop through the main station. The entries below use the same route apart from the connections at each end.
====Bologna avoiding line: Anzola dell'Emilia (P.M. Lavino) – Ozzano dell’Emilia (Bivio S. Vitale)====
[4, 45, 60] (49A1, ''144A2-144C3'') IT14/71
This route links the Milano and Ancona lines. There are no services over this line in the present timetable, but it is possible some may run in the summer.
====Bologna avoiding line: Bologna S. Ruffillo (Bivio Crociali) – Bologna Corticella====
[5, 46, 55] (49A1, ''144C2-144C3'') IT14/72
This route links the Firenze and Padova lines.
Trains AV9403 and AV9444, which run non-stop between Roma Tiburtina and Padova, run via Bologna Centrale station, so there is no known use of this route in the present timetable.

Revision as of 23:16, 17 December 2014

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.
