FS Class E632 Electric Locomotive.
E632.012 has just departed Mestre station on Friday May 17th, 2002 with train #IR2233 to Bologna (12:18 departure). The loco is at the rear of the train and the train is being operated from a control car on the front. This train is also hauling 2 apparently empty coaches including a regional car next to the engine. I had never seen this done before in Italy.
