The #Tenda line is international, as the French trains run from Nice to Tende and the Italian trains from Cuneo to Ventimiglia, but crossing French territory. I have used the Italian one before, so I am feeling a bit lazy and haven't taken any pictures. #SanRemoto

My first TER on the #Tenda line is an AGC with a refurbished interior. It makes such a huge difference to the AGC's grimy, old interior. There is even a line-specific livery. Along the line, you can see the line's old rolling-stock. #SanRemoto

The #Tenda line is always worth a visit. The railway offers stunning vistas of rocky valleys, blending alpine and Mediterranean charm. This is particularly special for me as I haven't travelled on the Nice-Breil section before. My train has a lot more @siegeavecvue than passengers. Perfect for taking some train window pictures! 😊 #SanRemoto

A new day, a new goal: trainspotting along one of the remaining coastal sections of the Ventimiglia–Genoa railway line. The highlight is the first westbound #Trenitalia InterCity of the day. 😊 #SanRemoto

I arrived slightly too late for #Sanremo 's trolleybus. #SanRemoto

#Sanremo 's old station is located just outside the old town. Some shops remain. Instead of tracks, the former railway line is now used as a cycle path. #SanRemoto

#Sanremo station, located in the double-track tunnel opened in 2001, is one of the main attractions of this short trip. A 450-metre tunnel connects the platforms with the entrance. #SanRemoto

In Genoa, it is time to board the connecting #Trenitalia InterCity train (my second ever). At the moment, it seems like almost every train has coaches in both old and new liveries. This is an almost fully booked Friday afternoon InterCity train from Genoa along the coast towards the French border. #SanRemoto

By the way: I like to choose my own seat based on my preferences. Is there a way to do this online with #Interrail for the EuroCity Switzerland–Italy service? I only know of ways where you’re randomly assigned a seat. On this journey, I had the honour of being assigned to @seatsixtyone.bsky.social
#SanRemoto

#SanRemoto begins with a Eurocity travelling south from Switzerland. If I have to pay a €19 seat reservation fee for my #Interrail to enter Italy, I would like to take a direct train that goes further than Milan. The 10:33 Eurocity connects Zurich with Genoa, Sestri Levante, La Spezia, Pisa, Livorno and other coastal towns in summer. There are free seats in first class on this Friday in May.
