Train was easy to find. The journeys were very relaxed. What was missing was information about which stop was next. Especially if you are traveling for the first time it is difficult to know when to get off. Fortunately, other passengers were very helpful.

Very modern train, totally quiet on the tracks. Punctual departure. Unfortunately, there is no seating at all on the platform at Milan Central Station! This is not a good service, especially for the older generation, and should be changed URGENTLY!

Despite a train strike and some disruption I arrived at Milan Centrale only 15 minutes or so later than expected. Instructions at the stations needed some help in translation but commuters were all friendly and helpful.
