What Are Some Interesting Features Of Traveling Experiences By Italian Trains?

Some of the most interesting features of travelling experiences by Italian trains includes the fact that the customer has to give up his passport and ticket to the train conductor for the whole night (in case of an overnight travel).  Another fascinating attribute of Italian trains is the variety of smoking zones in the trains, which are inclusive of half smoking and half non-smoking zones, which are separated by a plastic shelf and a door.  

Also there are some reserved seats and some non-reserved seats in the trains so the passenger should always be careful about reserving a seat or else he / she may end up with a seat that is reserved for another person.  A very sanguine trait of Italian trains is the fact that they are always punctual, which fades away all the apocryphal grapevine about their lack of timeliness.  Another thing that is fascinating about Italian trains is the fact that the train agents are not proficient in their English so well a passenger who is planning to travel by an Italian train should always be prepared well enough to deal with this language barrier.
