Frecciarossa ETR1000 No. 50 is pictured at Lyon Part-Dieu on 26th October 2022, working train 9292 (06.25 Milano Central to Paris Gare de Lyon). Trenitalia has been running direct trains (2/day) between the two cities since December 2021, in competition with the existing direct twice daily TGV services. In addition, Trenitalia runs three trains each way between Paris and Lyon in direct competition with SNCF on this busy route. The services are operated by five eight-car Bombardier/Hitachi high-speed sets equipped to operate into France. The trains provide four levels of service: standard, business, first class and executive. Fares are extremely competitive with a single in business class for the 391 km (243 miles) priced at only 35€ (including light refreshments and wine/champagne).
