TheSpecialITALIANJOBPhoto FeaturebyLorenzo Pallotta14Railway Photography
Above: An Italian Railways - Ferrovie dello Stato (FS)E656 class Bo-Bo-Bo electric loco is seen at the head ofan ‘Interregional’ express near Riano, some 20km fromRome while working a service from Firenze. This excellentviewpoint provides an uninterrupted view of the trainemerging from the tunnel. Thankfully the positioning of the3,000V overhead power line supports in this location allowsthe illustration to be taken without obtrusive poles clashingwith the locomotive.Previous Page Top: Taken on 25 June 2006 an ETR500high speed train set passes Castelnuovo di Porto witha service bound for Firenze. It is always something of achallenge for a photographer to place his railway subject,especially when travelling at high speed, in the landscape.Here the photographer uses a bale of straw as the dominantfeature.Previous Page Bottom: Another piece of photographic art,not often explored these days is ‘panning’, having a sharpmain subject with the scenery around blurred, giving the feelof great speed, something which ETR500 No. 23 is doing on 2May 2003 near Capena on the high speed line between Romeand Firenze.Right: Traversing a very scenic single line section of theroute from Rome to Ancona at Giuncano near the Cityof Terni on 27 March 2003 is one of the ETR450 Mk1‘Pendolino’ train sets formed of nine carriages and introducedin 1987. These trains were the prototype for many otherdesigns of tilting Pendolino train sets, including the UKoperatedVirgin Pendolino Class 390s.Railway Photography 15
