That would make sense because Frecciarossa and Italio are the only ones listed on the trainline app. It's generally quite up to date and the fact it lists only those two and not the public operators makes me think they'll run.
Okay, cheers. Italo are a little cheaper so I was leaning towards them anyway. I'm hopeful the trainline app is up to date so being able to book means they'll run.
I'm going to risk it and book the return journey from Rome to Milan on friday. The trainline has two different operators as options, Italo or Frecciarossa. Is there any information as to which is more likely to run? I think Frecciarossa run the Leonardo express but am I wrong about that?
When I go on the trainline app and look at trains on the friday from Rome to Milan Malpensa it shows a pretty full service. Is this because the apps not up to date or is it just not a particularly effective strike? Is it possible they're selling tickets for trains that won't actually run?
