Ferrovie dello Stato (FS Group) has announced plans for a new high-speed rail service connecting London and Paris by 2029.
The operator is already operating in France, with Trenitalia France, and in the UK, with Trenitalia UK, giving it a competitive advantage to begin services on this route, according to Travel Daily News.
High-speed train to connect Mediterranean-Adriatic coasts
