LINEA FERROVIARIA TORINO-SALERNO

Well, I don´t have the stamp yet, but it is on it´s way :)

The mini-sheet shows the Frecciarossa High Speed train standing out against a background of green and red shades. The name Frecciarossa (meaning Red Arrow) represents the new brand name for trains with top speeds in the 300-350 km/h range. ETR 500 trains have a million passengers a month, run on the high speed line connecting Turin to Salerno, Northern to Southern Italy in 4h13´. The train stop in Milano Porta Garibaldi e Rogoredo, Bologna Centrale and  Firenze Campo Marte.

The words “LINEA FERROVIARIA ALTA VELOCITÀ TORINO-SALERNO” (Turin-Salerno High Speed Rail Line), “ITALIA”, and the denomination “€ 0,60” complete the stamp.

The stamp is printed in a perforated rectangle in the centre of the sheet, featuring the same colours as the stamp. The outline of the train on the design of the stamp continues outside the rectangle; on the left, at the top and bottom respectively, are the logos of Ferrovie dello Stato (the Italian State Railways) and Poste Italiane.
