The Settimo Torinese–Pont Canavese railway is a railway linking comunes of Settimo Torinese and Pont Canavese. Settimo railway station allows an interchange to the Turin-Milan railway, owned by Trenitalia. ==History== The Settimo–Pont Canavese railway was, amongst other infrastructures, part of a plan to improve the piedmontese economy started by Doc. Carlo Demaria, mayor Giuseppe Recrosio and entrepreneurs Giuseppe Chiesa and Fortunato Pistono. Construction started in 1856 by ''Società Anonima della Strada Ferrata del Canavese''. The section to Rivarolo, with a 1650mm gauge, was inaugurated on 1865. Due to the line not being profitable enough, ''Società Anonima per la Strada Ferrata e le Tranvie del Canavese'' took over the construction of the railway, rebuilding it from scratch using the standard gauge. In 1906 the line was completed, successfully contributing to the area's economical development. On 1 March 2002, the Settimo-Rivarolo section of the line was fully electrified. The Cuorgnè-Pont Canavese section of the line was closed due to a flood in the year 2000. It reopened on 7 July 2004. 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「Settimo Torinese–Pont Canavese railway」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
