About :
In the first part of the video I visited ancient villages in Tuscia and traveled in the cabin of a 1932 Stanga Tibb electric locomotive over sixty years old on the Rome-Viterbo Railway, the 'Roma Nord'. This second part begins by travelling along the ancient Via Clodia; I visit ancient Blera, the Etruscan necropolis of Pian del Vescovo, with the typical interiors of the tombs. From Blera to Tarquinia, still in Tuscia. Tarquinia, one of the oldest and most important Etruscan settlements, splendid painted tombs on the Monterozzi hill that show the life of the ancient, mysterious Etruscans. Then a visit to Tarquinia, a modern village. Passing through Civitavecchia, the Via Emilia and I go to Cerveteri. Plateau of Banditaccia, with the large mounds of the ancient tombs, where the rank of the deceased was represented by the size of the mound itself. The enormous importance that the Etruscans attributed to the afterlife is evident, which they believed took place inside and behind the walls of the tombs and was entirely similar to the earthly one. The magical world of the Etruscans. Then the crenellated walls of the village of Cerveteri and ... off to the sea, to Ladispoli, the natural, modern-day beach of Cerveteri. Via Aurelia, to the sea at S. Severa. I visit Ostia Antica, where the ... bricks survive, stripped over the centuries of all its marble to build elsewhere. Mosaics of the commercial and maritime headquarters, the insulae, the Capitolium, the Termopolium ... one is always fascinated by them, of Ostia Antica. Then the Rocca di Ostia, built by Giuliano della Rovere who became Pope Julius II. The Via Ostiense ends at the sea; I am in Ostia Lido, the shore and the sea of Rome. The railway station of Ostia Antica, on the 28 km of the Rome-Lido railway, which connects Rome Porta S. Paolo next to the Caio Cestio pyramid, to the Lido of Ostia Cristoforo Colombo. Standard gauge railway, double track, electrified at 1500 volts direct current, opened in 1924 as a single track and temporary steam traction. Fiat electric motors and Stanga Tibb electric motors, former metro line B, from the 1950s. Transits at Vitinia station ... which will be demolished. Rome, with the last lights of the day, via Conciliazione, the Dome, the embrace of Piazza S. Pietro; night vision of the Dioscuri, Castor and Pollux, at the top of the wide steps of the Campidoglio; the Roman Forum, the Arch of Constantine, the Flavian amphitheatre better known as the Colosseum. A ride in the night, by car, along the original pavement of the Via Appia Antica ... and the video could only end at the Piazzale Flaminio terminus of the Rome-Viterbo railway.
