The Genoa urban railway service is operated by Trenitalia on the lines around the city of Genoa. == History == The urban railway service in Genoa was opened in 1964 by the Ferrovie dello Stato. It was the second urban railway service after the "metropolitana FS" in Naples.〔Giovanni Cornolò: ''Automotrici elettriche dalle origini al 1983.'' Duegi Editrice, 2011, p. 243.〕 The FS used the modern EMUs ALe 803, projected for commuter rail services.〔 In 1976 they were substituted by their newer evolution, the ALe 801/940.〔Giovanni Cornolò: ''Automotrici elettriche dalle origini al 1983.'' Duegi Editrice, 2011, p. 256.〕 The service suffered because of the overcrowded section between Sampierdarena and Brignole, so from 1987 the line was doubled building another two tracks, by reusing some old harbor branches. The new bypass was opened on 23 May 1993 and included a new underground station at Piazza Principe.〔Mario Bianchi: ''Il passante di Genova.'' In: ''I Treni'' n. 140 (september 1993), p. 14.〕 During the years some new stops have been added: in 1994 Costa di Sestri Ponente,〔''Nuova fermata a Genova.'' In: ''I Treni'' n. 156 (january 1995), p. 8.〕 and in 2005 San Biagio and Via di Francia;〔''Impianti FS.'' In: ''I Treni'' n. 277 (january 2006), p. 8.〕 in 2006 the old Pra station has been substituted by a new one.〔Mario Bianchi: ''Novità a Genova.'' In: ''I Treni'' n. 282 (june 2006), p. 18.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Genoa urban railway service」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
