In reply to Dario, Apart from a week travelling between Stresa and Milano to visit Milano tram depot, my time in Italy has been around the bay of Naples, using the Circumvesuviana.

I have often stayed in Sorrento and visited Ppmpeii, Ercolano, San Pietro di Scafati and Napoli. I have also used the Metropolitana old and new (out to Secondigliano) and the line to Baia(?)

Haven't been to Sorrento for 4 years, but looking forward to returning in a year or two. Holidays there have become very expensive since the €uro came in, with 1000 lire being translated to €1 by most traders, hence doubling prices!

I'd like to go back to the railway museum at Pietrarsa. Lots of interesting exhibits, but all static. A bit of a shame, that. I'd also like to go back to see the new trolleybuses in Napoli. The old ones were getting a bit tired-looking. Have they been upgrading the trams as well?

Thanks for the warm welcome,

Malcolm
