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 ΓrΓΌmqi.

Howwwwww the fuccccccc did I ever think I was a cis man
Born to transition
Cisnormativity is a fuck
tbh even as I got older I could never think of myself as a man, I always saw myself as a generic, traitless "guy".
I think I can see that. In the back of my mind I never really liked it when people called me a man, but I would call myself one because what the hell else am I gonna call myself? It's not like I'm trans or anything...
I always had this internal recoil any time my dad would give me "man to man" advice. I always just assumed it was because I didn't respect him and didn't want his advice. In retrospect there was an additional component lol.
I guess you're right. I don't think I ever actively thought I was a cis man. I just kind of treated it as the default. Once I realized there's not really such a thing as a default, it became increasingly clear I was trans haha
