Il lungo viaggio dei treni. In carrozza!
Ulisse, il piacere della scoperta will guide us on a journey along the tracks to discover this wonderful vehicle. We will board a working steam locomotive and discover the royal carriage used by the Savoys at the beginning of the last century. From the first steam trains to the futuristic magnetic levitation trains, Alberto Angela will talk about the unstoppable race of the train and its impact on every corner of the world and on distant and different cultures. He will then show unusual and true aspects behind the scenes of today's trains. From the subway we take to go to work in the morning to the projects for new futuristic railway lines. Or the importance it had for our fathers, as in the great emigration from south to north in post-war Italy. We will then see the construction of the first railway in history: the Liverpool-Manchester, designed by the self-taught engineer George Stephenson.
