English: The one on Tarvisio Centrale is a document that I would never have thought of sending when, having visited in the 90s, it was a station with a high density of international traffic with freight trains that on average entered at a rate of one every 5/10 minutes, often arriving already composed in the Pontebba yard, today reduced to absolute nothingness. The line was doubled with a variant of the route, practically all in tunnels and a station, Bagni Santa Caterina, operated for a couple of years, just to fool people into thinking that the train would be there for them too, and then closed. Many communications costing billions were built, which still exist in Austria but which were taken away here by the Destroyer, now passed to Finmeccanica, with the excuse of the famous "lean network". Tarvisio Boscoverde was built, modern, with an integrated hotel of which there is no trace but of which in the station hall there are still the signs along with that of a restaurant that I don't know if it was ever opened and in any case it no longer exists today. Advice: if you go there, avoid the drinks vending machine that often doesn't dispense anything and takes your money. Today, when things go well, Boscoverde receives and sends three trains every hour and passenger traffic is irrelevant. And what remains of Tarvisio C.le is what you see, an immense structure that is now unused and not converted to other uses because none could be found. The only positive thing is the network of cycle paths "Alpe Adria" that leads to Austria and Slovenia, as well as to Udine, created from the old route of which important evidence has been left. There remains the bitterness for the monuments to waste that in Italy will multiply more and more, in homage to the mafia and politicians: neither of the two can do without the other.
