Italy: 'Frecciabianca', E402 powered (locomotive nos. 402110 front & 402170 rear) train FB8655, the 1510 Ventimiglia to Milano Centrale service leaves the new Sanremo station.
Clip recorded 29th March 2022.

E.402A/B is a class of electric locomotives mainly used on medium speed passenger trains (max 200 km/h services like InterCity or Frecciabianca) by the Italian railway company FS Trenitalia.

E.402B represent an evolution of the class E.402, with different driving cabins and equipment. 80 units have been built (numbered 101-180).

This locomotive, unlike its predecessor, is able to run under different voltages, the Italian standard 3 kV DC and the new high speed lines at 25 kV AC. Further, units 139-158 are able to run under French 1.5 kV DC (at half power), and are classified as E.402BF (F stands for Francia, France). They mount a single ATR90 pantograph and two single arm pantographs for use on French network (1.5 kV DC and 25 kV AC), and French safety systems (Vacma, radio, KVB). Curiously they haven't been authorized to go to Ventimiglia and Modane stations, which are on the border with France, and have 1.5 kV DC catenary.

E.402BF, also, can be used to remote command another locomotive of the same class, but not to be remote commanded from driving coach; on normal E.402B, this is reversed.

Today both classes are often seen hauling Intercity, sometimes freight, services and are the only locomotives able to be remote commanded by Z1 driving cars via TCN, allowing push-pull services.

Sanremo railway station is situated in the Italian city of Sanremo.
It was opened on 27 September 2001, with the opening of the new double-track line between Bordighera and Imperia, which is a deviation of the Genoa–Ventimiglia line, built mainly in tunnel. The new station replaced an old picturesque station on a single track line that ran along the shore.
The Sanremo station building contains a ticket hall, waiting room, information office, kiosk, and bar. The entrance building is connected to the platforms built in a tunnel by a long corridor, equipped with a moving walkway. Travel time is approximately 10 minutes. The station has two platforms connected by an underpass.

As Sanremo is an important tourist destination and a significant source of commuter traffic, the station has substantial traffic. All trains stop at the station. Most trains are regional or express; some are Intercity trains.

The old railway station of Sanremo was located in the middle of the town at Piazza Cesare Battisti, close to the coast.

Sanremo or San Remo is a city and comune on the Mediterranean coast of Liguria, in northwestern Italy. Founded in Roman times, it is known as a tourist destination on the Italian Riviera. It hosts numerous cultural events, such as the Sanremo Music Festival and the Milan–San Remo cycling classic.

The railway line used to be along the coast, running close to the sea, and providing a view for travellers. The line has been moved further north and underground, which allows for faster trains; Sanremo railway station was relocated next to the City Hall. The city has refurbished the old railway line and converted it into a bike route and pedestrian area.
