Trenitalia's new regulation on luggage on board Frecce, the fastest trains on the rail network, was supposed to come into effect today. "In light of some requests, including from consumer associations, Trenitalia informs that it has decided to suspend the application, as of March 1, of the regulation on the transport of luggage, scooters and bicycles on board trains," reads a note published yesterday afternoon. The new regulation should have placed strict rules on the number and size of luggage that can be carried on board, with differentiation related to the class of ticket purchased. It also regulated the carrying on board of scooters, bicycles, sports equipment and musical instruments.
