19/03/2023: Open day at La Spezia Migliarina DORS (Deposito Officina Rotabili Storici - Depot and repair shop for Historical rolling stocks), managed by Fondazione FS.
Fondazione FS Italiane looks after and manages the Italian State Railways vast historic heritage: it oversees a fleet of over 400 pieces of historic rolling stock, around 200 of which are in full working order.
It also oversees the archives and libraries, both the Pietrarsa and the Trieste Campo Marzio Museums as well as some dedicated Depots (like La Spezia Migliarina DORS).
La Spezia Migliarina DORS is mainly devoted to Electric Locomotives.
The ALn 442-448 railcars were particular double diesel railcars of the Italian State Railways built in the second half of the fifties of the last century with the aim of preparing in a short time a train capable of carrying out Trans Europ Express international services:
the thermal traction it did not impose the change of the locomotive at the border, which was necessary in the case of electric traction as a result of the different power supply and operating systems.
They were used, at the end of their career in some local services until 24 October 1982.
The last services saw them engaged in special trains, for amateur and agency services, until June 1995.
On 2 February 2023, the two units 448-460.2008 were taken over by the FS Foundation and transferred from the SanthiĆ workshops to the DORS of La Spezia Migliarina, for recovery work.
