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 Pistoia DORS). Heating coach Vr 25908 (NVR 60 82 99 25 908-4 Vr) of the FS. This type of coach contains a steam generator and was used to heat composition with steam heated coaches when hauled by Diesel or Electric locos. Photo by Guido Allieri (guido@allieri.com)
