Metropolitana di Roma

The Rome Metro (Italian: Metropolitana di Roma) is an underground public transportation system that operates in Rome, Italy. It was opened in 1955. There are currently two lines, A line (identified by the orange colour) and B line (blue). A third service, the green C line, and a new branch of the B line, are currently under construction. Plans have also been revealed even for a fourth line. The current network (38 km) has an X-shape with the two currently existing line intersecting at Termini Station, the main train station in Rome.

The operator of the Rome's metro system, Met.Ro. - Metropolitana di Roma S.p.A., also operates several suburban rail services: the Roma-Lido, the Roma-Pantano and the Roma-Nord lines. The first of these the Roma-Lido line, which connects Rome to the sea at Ostia, is effectively part of the metro network, is run along similar lines and uses trains similar to those in service on the A and B lines. The Roma-Pantano line, although officially designated as a railway, is a narrow gauge tram line while the Roma-Nord line is a suburban railway.
