Sicily: ATM, a piece of Emilia adopted from Trapani

Towards the beginning of February I went to Sicily, where not much is known about the various TPL children (apart from the big cities such as Palermo, Catania and Messina), but, as I thought, are full of surprises and rare cars to find in other Italian cities. First stop is at Trapani, where TPL is controlled by ATM (Azienda Trasporti and Mobility Drills) Former UAA (Autofiloviari Urban Services), which also operates the nearby city of Erice.


The bus station is located in Piazza Trapani John Paul II, from where almost all the trunk lines, except line 1, from nearby Via Ilio, and line 10, passing through the old town, and that part Piazza Vittorio Emanuele (about 500 meters from the terminal).
Now to the ATM fleet. Whereas ATM BredaMenarini Trapani is authorized workshop for the province of Trapani, which already includes most of the cars are BredaMenarini. In fact, most models that we can meet are BMB 240 of the first series of 2001, and the most recent BMB 240 AVANCITY 2005. Besides them, there are also smaller cars, used for the lines that pass through the historic center, lines and low turnout. A look at the past, we know that Trapani was very popular Fiat 418 AL in the IMER Body, Room, Minerva and Breda Pistoia.

INBUS U210FT n.76


One of the old stars left the ATM of Trapani are without a doubt these Inbus U210FT 1986. Seeing the RS logo on the side of the bus near the front door, you understand that this bus was purchased with the contributions from the Region. During my vacation I saw only two turn this, still wearing the orange 76 car ministerial, and the car 80 in new livery biverde, as the most recenti BMB 240. Gli Inbus vengono utilizzati esclusivamente di mattina, fino alle ore 15 circa, quando finisce l'orario scolastico.

BMB M240 LU n.107


I mezzi più comuni dell'ATM Trapani sono senza dubbio i BredaMenarini M240, acquistati nel 2001, sia nella versione lunga da 12 metri, sia in quella più corta da 10.5 metri. A differenza di altri 240 presenti in Italia, tutti quelli di Trapani (esclusi gli Avancity), non sono provvisti di condizionatore a bordo. Al contrario degli Inbus, i 240 li possiamo vedere girare per tutta la giornata, fino a sera inoltrata.

IVECO 7.9
EUROPOLIS n.115


means small, we find many in Trapani. Like this Europolis of 2001, which has been circulating all day on line 10, which connects Piazza Vittorio Emanuele to the historic center. With the availability of electric minibuses also, it is strange that they use diesel cars for this line that crosses the city center.

BMB ZEUS n.122


The ATM also has some electric minibuses used mostly on a line and sometimes Line 2 (dinner only), the lines most often to be seen, as are many day trips. These are BredaMenarini Zeus, bought in 2003, to replace other means children not very environmentally friendly as the Tom Thumb older or old Fiat 418.

M240 BMB AVANCITY LU n.135


The most modern methods that can be found in Trapani, apart from Zeus, are BredaMenarini AVANCITY M240 fuel oil, purchased new in 2005, and present, as in the first 240 series, both in long by 12 meters, both in the short version by 10.5 meters. Even AVANCITY run throughout the day, until late evening, and on virtually all routes except those where turn means smaller

AUTODROMO POLLICINO TH n.143 former ATC BOLOGNA n.2301


Here the surprises begin. I discovered that Trapani has bought many second hand vehicles from ATC Bologna, both in size long (12 meters) of small size. Here we are faced with un'Autodromo Thumb TH 1994, ritargato in 2007, former coach of 2301 ATC Bologna. All cars ex ATC Bologna (or at least those that I saw) remained in original livery, as this is how the car 145, Autodromo Thumb 20p ex 2208 ATC, still in red livery, as it was when he was struck in Bologna.

Menarini 201 / 1 LU n.147 former ATC BOLOGNA n.5075


If the former Tom Thumb ATC was a surprise, this car is even more. I knew that in the nearby city of Marsala attended the Menarini 201 / 1 ATC Bologna former, but not in Trapani. Here we are in front of 147, former coach ATC Bologna 5075 (in the back is the "kick" of the old freshman ATC). The interior seems rebuilt from the origin, with the validator ATM, but still with the regulations of the ATC Bologna. In addition to this, I Menarini turn saw another identical to this one, coach 148, ex ATC 5077, and another 201 with the orange line on the gray side (ATC original livery of the 80s).

Pomezia: Services The local school

during school hours (between the hours of about 13 at 14) Via Don Luigi Sturzo, where there are some institutions, we can meet some of the companies that provide service only to students who return home. Companies engaged in this service are quite well known in the Lazio region, as Onorati and Gioiabus, using intercity bus. During our stay in Via Sturzo, the surprises are not lacking, either in the "Night Shift" is of some cars that we would never expect to see there.


Mercedes O303 Menarini-GIOIABUS-


Presence Pomezia practically fixed during school hours, this is SL Mercedes O303 Menarini Company Gioiabus, where every day around 13:30 or so, we see it parked next to Don Sturzo away, waiting for the students. Lately it has been repainted in this particular green livery, replacing the classic blue ministry.

MERCEDES O405GN ATM MACHINE ex-MILANO-GIOIABUS


The biggest surprise is surely this. In November 2010, the company Gioiabus bought second hand at the center of San Giovanni Rotondo, this beautiful Mercedes O405GN bodywork Macchi ATM former Milan coach in 2564, and renumbered 19. This car running exclusively in Pomezia school, where, after serving 7 am, is parked next to Sturzo way up at about 14, where again to go back to the students. Lately in Lazio are purchasing several 18-meter articulated buses. In addition to this and articulated ATAC Rome, we find the old and new effeuno Viberti (say again ...) BMB321 ex ATAF Florence running in Rieti, always in the timetable school.

BREDABUS 5001.9-honor-


This watch belongs to the series "Night Shift." In fact, for many years is that this car can not be seen (2003 to April), and presents some changes, starting with the word "Bus Onorati" missing on the sides. Throughout the school day, this car will be passed via Sturzo 5 times, then park in front of an institute in the past waiting students. Bus like this in Italy, are counted in the fingers of one hand. In fact, apart Onorati, we know that they existed in Naples Circumvesuviana e nella IAS Scura in Calabria, mentre alla COTRAL Lazio (notare la livrea bianco-blu identica...) era presente la serie 8501-8554, BB5001 da 12 metri, durati pochissimo a causa della loro scarsa affidabilità. Considerando che alla Onorati i numeri di matricola sono progressivi (le nuove vetture hanno le matricole più alte), il numero 22 presente su questa vettura fà pensare che sia arrivata verso gli inizi degli anni 90.

RENAULT PR14 SR MINERVA -ONORATI-


Per le corse scolastiche la Onorati spesso e volentieri utilizza autobus extraurbani o turistici di seconda mano dismessi dal loro compito originario, che in gra parte dei casi possono superare i 20 anni di servizio. E' il caso ad esempio di questo raro Renault PR 14SR carrozzato minerva nell'inedita taglia da 10 metri e mezzo. Da notare come il mezzo sia stato completamente rifatto esternamente con una nuova livrea argentata e nuovi finestrini oscurati che lo ringiovaniscono non poco, nonostante gli spettino solo compiti minimi all'interno del comune di Pomezia.

MERCEDES O303.13 RH PADANE Z4 -ONORATI-


Discorso simile al Renault sopra descritto, và fatto a questo esemplare di Mercedes O303 carrozzato Padane da 10.5 metri, acquistato da un'anno circa (targa DZ XXX XX) from Bristol Travel Schio (VI). Unlike Renault, the livery of this medium is left with the classic blue ministerial, but with no serial number

urban service Trojans Pomezia

In the town of Pomezia, not far from Rome, the city service is run by the Trojans, the company that manages some lines of Rome Tor Cervara TPL in the shed (lines 056, 220, 222, 314, 404, 554), and other small urban services in the province of Rieti. Besides that, the Trojans also carries suburban services in the province of Terni and Rieti.


A Pomezia most bus lines depart from Via Don Luigi Sturzo, where there are also many lines school operated by other private companies such as honors and Gioiabus (we will discuss in the next post). Since lines long enough (some arriving in the seaside resorts and Torvajanica Ostia, but is very popular line 1, which runs from the terminus of Via Don Sturzo the railway station), the Trojans are using 12-meter long buses in suburban construction, except for some line shorter, where we also see bus from 10.5 meters in urban construction. The instruments can be found are Mercedes O530 Citaro, divided into:
- Citaro a 12-meter first round two doors € 2;
- Citaro a 12-meter three-door vertical motor 2004;
- 1 Citaro 12m 2-door Suburban 2004;
- 2 Citaro 12m NEW 2-door Suburban 2008;
- 2 NEW Citaro 10.5m 2-door Suburban.
addition to this, there is also a BredaMenarini LU 240 CNG natural gas in 2003. In 2010 have been set aside the last vestiges of former Inbus U210FTN Perugia.
In the past, even recently, they turned MAN NM223, Mercedes O405 and O405 NK, Mercedes Sprinter Noge, MAN 11220 Sitca I2000.9-CAM, Setra S315 UL, IC, and Safari Temsa Autodromo Ale.

MERCEDES O530
CITARA FIRST SERIES


is not easy to find this type Citaro around Italy. The first series, dating from the late 90's, very popular especially in foreign countries (Germany over all). In Italy's north-central many companies have them, such as ATC Bologna, Ferrara ACTF BOTH times Piacenza and Brescia. Another exemplary owns the Riccitelli in Formia. In addition to this example of Trojans, I got it used, I have seen in Pescara at the GTM, used as a suburban service.

CITARA NEW MERCEDES O530


During the 2008 Trojans also arrive at different NEW Mercedes Citaro urban in both the three-door version is in the suburban two-port (like this), replacing many of the last remaining Inbus U210FTN former Perugia, recently used only for educational reinforcement. I took this car to get from the railway station in Pomezia Viale Don Luigi Sturzo, and I personally do not mind.

MERCEDES O530 CITARA K


the Trojans, including two Mercedes Citaro short run from 10.5 meters (Citaro K) in a suburban setting up two ports. One is 2008, and arrived a few months. This has sent the latest copy of a retired ex Inbus U210FTN left Perugia. Sometimes they vediamo girare anche nella linea 1, negli orari con meno affluenza.

BMB 240 LU CNG
 
Ecco l'unico bus urbano ecologico a Metano presente a Pomezia per il servizio urbano. Si tratta di un Bredamenarini 240 LU, arrivato nel 2003, ed equipaggiato con cambio ZF. Stranamente ha girato solo durante la mattinata, per poi tornare in deposito verso le 13.30, in pieno orario scolastico, credo sostituito da uno dei Mercedes Citaro K.

The urban service Francigena Viterbo

Viterbo è stata da sempre una delle mie tappe preferite, sia per il trasporto pubblico, sia per the city, very beautiful and charming. The service is managed by the Urban Francigena (ex SAUVE) and covers the city of Viterbo and some surrounding villages such as San Martin and Bagnaia. Most of the line from the terminus in the historical center, called Memorial, recently upgraded from my last visit in Viterbo (June 2009).


Cotral The regional coach lines, however, is located in the north of the city, outside the city center. The fleet is very diverse, including city buses no longer than 10.5 meters, due to the paths of the lines on narrow streets, and two intercity bus always used by 10.5 meters to the line of Grotte S. Stefano - Montecalvello. As for the models, the Francigena did not buy new vehicles recently (newer buses are CNG BMB231C 2007), is continuing to use the nearly thirty Menarini 201 / 1 United Nations, made very well both aesthetically and mechanically, both Cityclass Cursor Europolis and early 2000. In
remittance Francigena, are in excellent condition for their venerable age, a 4 Fiat 418 AC Menarini a manual gearbox, original them. Two of them (car 10 and car 11) will continue until 30/06/2011, while the remaining two (8 car and the car 9) are currently on sale. Despite the more than 30 years old, the inside of the car 11 is immaculate, although unfortunately the seats are not original 70's.

Menarini 201 / 1 NU n.13


Perhaps Viterbo is one of the cities with more than 201 Menarini circulating in Italy in 2011, whereas the older cars of 1981 ( 201 / 1 NU), and the most recent in 1986 (201 / 2 NS and NU). This particular one, the car 13, has the advantage of being the only one with the gray front and rear bumpers as the origin, and the lack of new indicators scheduled. As with most older cars, too, almost trentenne, continua a macinare chilometri senza avere nessun problema. E considerando che a breve non è previsto nessun arrivo di nuovi bus, i 201 di Viterbo sono destinati a durare ancora qualche anno.

MENARINI 201/1 NU n.14

A parte la vettura 13, le restanti 5 vetture Menarini 201/1 NU sono state tutte riverniciate, compresi i paraurti anteriori e posteriori. Gli sono stati messi anche i display al posto delle classiche velette e dei cartelli, uguali ai più recenti Cityclass ed Europolis. Purtroppo questa vettura ha un'altra piccola (ma non troppo...) modifica: i reggimani sono stati riverniciati in un'orrendo (In my opinion) Celestine, perhaps because they are too worn over the years.

Menarini 201 / 2 NU n.24


In 1987, there's also two copies of the Francigena Menarini 201 / 2, a version of urban (NU) and one in suburban version (NS). The suburban version we saw running in the late morning, then take on a service line education. The urban version, however, he shot all day on line 11. A curiosity: although they have changed the indicator line to nearly all 201 / 1, even at 201 / 2 NU has remained the old indicator, a bit 'more recent than what the car has 13, while the 201 / 2 NS got a new display.

AUTODROMO POLLICINO n.27


Quite important are the Autodromo Thumb 20p Chassis Fiat Ducato Maxi. Sometimes we even having to do lines (as in this case on the line 8, and very long at peak times full of passengers) which usually take the 201 or the CityClass. In fact, we noticed that during school hours, while larger vehicles were racing school institutes, the Tom Thumb, along with some short Europolis, remained to make the ordinary line. Finished the school day, or return to throw, or make short-haul lines.


IRISBUS 491E.12.27 CityClass CURSOR n.38


in 2004/2005 Francigena make a radical renewal of the fleet, setting aside the means older. Specifically, the Cityclass 38 and 39 have replaced the Fiat 470.10.20, unfortunately struck because of their multiple mechanical failures. The remaining cars have replaced part of the Fiat 418 AC Menarini (of which circulating rue this day) and the Fiat 314 Menarini. During the day the Cityclass run virtually anywhere, both in the normal timetable, both in school, even if a car was resting in a small parking lot near the bus station.

IRISBUS EUROPOLIS n.41


Between late 1990 and early 2000, the year Francigena Europolis bought seven, divided into five cars from 9 feet, two of them in suburban two-door version, and two cars from 8 meters. They too, like Cityclass sosituito have the old glories, especially the various Fiat Fiat 314 and 409A Menarini Menarini, and run virtually anywhere, at any time and in any line. Rarely do we find even one of the circular, adding to 231C.

BMB 231C CNG n.46


Le ultime vetture acquistate dalla Francigena sono due BMB231C Vivacity "Exobus" a metano del 2007 e vengono utilizzate per le linee circolari A e B che passano per il centro storico. Come vetture sono abbastanza buone, adatte per il loro utilizzo. Montano un cambio ZF a 5 marce. Nelle ore di punta, sulle circolari, vengono affiancate ai BMB231C, anche alcuni Europolis e/o Pollicino.

Formia: The extra-urban service

A Formia notevole importanza hanno le aziende extraurbane. All start from the Railway Station square, opposite the terminus of bus routes ATP. We find the Cotral, the public transport company of Lazio, which carries the line Formia - Gaeta (formerly carried out by means urban Cotral Menarini 201 / 2 LU four-door), the form - Minturno country, and the shape - Terracina . During school hours partly a line for America and one for Cassino.


Cotral Besides, there are two other companies, and Riccitelli Petteruti. The Riccitelli is based in Marina di Minturno (LT) and operates in the provinces of Caserta (Campania) and Latina (Lazio) with various bus concession linking Gaeta, Formia and Minturno with the various centers of the Province of Caserta including Sessa Aurunca, Mondragone Carinola, Tean, Sparanise; also carries lines Gran Turismo: Bay Domitian - Domitian Gaeta and the Bay - Monte Cassino. In addition to these lines, Riccitelli also carries a small city service connecting the village of Minto with Scauri. Suburban bus has also very special, though quite modern. The Petteruti instead based in Sessa Aurunca (CE) and carries out the lines that start at Sessa Aurunca and come to forms, as well as Bay Domitia Cellole and Garigliano. Here there is also quite rare in the media Lazio, as well as some car quite dated. The Petteruti also rents minivan (Fiat, Mercedes, Setra) from 4 to 26 places for day trips transference, pilgrimages, national and multi-day tour of Europe.
Now we move to the photos as always.

COTRAL
IVECO 370S.12.L25 n.8101


During school hours you can catch the elders of the 1990 370S Cotral. Has already started that rumor to be decommissioned in a few time to replace them with new media (we're talking over 400 Iveco 370S divided between Valley and Ufita Menarini), but for now still running normally between the various provinces of Lazio. Here in Formia there are not many, in fact, are used almost exclusively in schools, but rarely have also shot up lines long enough, as the form - Cassino during the run of 18.45.

BREDAMENARINI M240 LI n.9267


Mostly used on races Formia - Gaeta are Bredamenarini M240 LI with Daimler Chrysler, purchased in 2004 to replace the now S210 dated Inbus Siccar 176 and Menarini 201 / 2 LS, came to an end. I'm not too bad as otherwise unless the excessive and loud engine noise you hear inside the car. They are used, as well as in Formia almost everywhere in Lazio, both on short lines to long lines and challenging.

Riccitelli
IVECO 391E.12.35 ORLANDI EuroRider


Now to Riccitelli. The means used are very special and rare to find in Lazio. Here we are faced with an Iveco 391 EuroRider bodywork Orlandi 1998. E 'air conditioning and automatic transmission ZF 5HP 500. Of EuroRider like this in Lazio there are very few or even none. In other parts of Italy it is easier to meet, especially in northern Italy, in the revised version of 2003.

IVECO 370SE.12.35 DALLAVIA


The Petteruti, compared to Riccitelli, has even more rare and special means, such as bodywork Dallavia this Iveco 370SE. I apologize for the photograph, taken in the summer of 2010, but unfortunately I could not photograph it during my last trip. Bus identical to this I have seen such ATV in the Veneto region in 2009, but rarely do we find here in Lazio. The medium is the 1997, which is also equipped with air conditioning, and has a 6-speed manual gearbox.

MENARINI 120L


This time I apologize for the prospect of the half, but I took this photo while I was on top of un'Effeuno ATP, and not quite at ease. But this means it deserves. We speak of a 120L Menarini, bought the original in 1997. The Menarini 120 was produced until 2000, replacing the old Menarini 110. In Lazio, beyond that of Petteruti, will run two more still in the province of Latina, only that we can find them only during the summer in Terracina.

The objective is to get into town, especially in the squares (from Piazza del Popolo) and in other public places with free internet wi fi, or wireless.

" Interest in the free wi fi is growing, with the repeal of the rule that placed restrictions Pisanu. Last November, a similar petition had been successfully promoted in Pordenone, and so the committee has to do in other towns in the province.

"Free" to resign, as the bringer of madness Marrazzo


With this headline and front-page article, "Free" today actually make a huge mistake. How can Belpietro - editorial that also boasts of having given a brilliant idea advising the Democratic Party to dismiss the party as a whole to remove the prime minister - making him think that just omit the article by Rita Jordan and Tedoldi Cavallaro, the reader of his newspaper is not in mind that Marrazzo has resigned, and therefore can do what he wants, without Italy (in his case only Lazio and his party, then) interest anymore?
