Good to Know

Final Destinaton: Roma Termini

This train also calls at: Viareggio and Livorno

This train usually departs daily at 15:20 - note that it only departs from Torino Porta Nuova station and does not call at Torino Porta Susa station.

If that departure time doesn't suit there is also a daily direct InterCity train, which is usually scheduled to leave Torino at 10:35 or 10:40.

**Scenic Rating: ***

Type of Scenery:**  Coast

The sea views can be seen on the right south of Genova, when facing the direction of travel.

The railway line passes through the Cinque Terre towns after Monterroso - where there are fleeting glimpses of the coast between the frequent tunnels.

Those tunnels made it tricky to film this journey when ShowMeTheJourney spent an afternoon travelling back and forth by train between Genova and La Spezia, hence the attempt at a video montage.

Also as can be seen the weather wasn't the best either, but the video does showcase that it can be worth taking in these sea views, even on a grey day!
