Italian high-speed train

Frecciabianca (Italian: [ˌfrettʃaˈbjaŋka]; from freccia bianca, "white arrow") is a high-speed train operated by Trenitalia, Italy's national train operator, and one of its Le Frecce brands, along with Frecciarossa and Frecciargento. Frecciabianca was introduced in 2011, replacing Eurostar Italia. Frecciabianca trains operate at speeds up to 200 km/h (124 mph).
