The ETR 600 is a class of trains built by Alstom, and are used on the routes between Roma-Bolzano and Roma-Trieste. The train tilts, using Pendolino technology, allowing higher speeds to be maintained through corners without causing discomfort to passengers. The trains are operated by Trenitalia, originally under the Frecciargento (Silver Arrow) branding used for trains capable of travelling between 250 km/h and 285 km/h, In 2022 they were rebranded under Frecciarossa (Red Arrow) after the Frecciargento branding was retired.
The ETR 600 has also been adapted for use in China as the China Railway CRH5 Hexie. Initially 60 sets were ordered, of which nine were manufactured by Alstom and 51 by CNR Changchun Railway Vehicles. Since, another 80 sets have been created for a total of 140, operating across China's north from Beijing to Ürümqi.

I literally experienced musicowl.exe has stopped working the first time someone called me ma’am.
lmao, so did I, but that was years before my egg even cracked. I was going through TSA and the agent referred to me and my mother as "You two lovely ladies", which was a surprise to me. I was wearing a big sweater and had an inch long beard. I was standing in a big crowd so I'm wasn't surprised or offended, but I just found it so funny that I was called a lady? Clearly I'm not a woman, right? pfft. How ridiculous. It's really, really funny anyone thought otherwise! It felt good that a funny thing happened!
this is so sweet.
more than anything, i'm just surprised that a trans woman could ever claim to have had a positive experience with the TSA
I flew yesterday and got randomly screened. I think this was the first time anyone in TSA was actually not unpleasant with me Just for practical advice, I think pre-check in essential. Like, I will literally never fly in the US without it again.
