Frecciargento

Frecciargento (from freccia argento, "silver arrow") is a high-speed train of the Italian national train operator, Trenitalia, as one of its Le Frecce brands (along with Frecciarossa and Frecciabianca). The name was introduced in 2012; these trains were previously branded as Eurostar Italia. Frecciargento trains operate at speeds of up to 250 km/h.

In May 2022, it was announced by Trenitalia's CEO Luigi Corradi that, starting from summer 2022, the Frecciargento brand will be phased out. The trains that operate as Frecciargento will be incorporated, with a change of livery, into the Frecciarossa service. However in November 2023, it has been announced that some Frecciabianca services will be upgraded to Frecciaargento, therefore keeping the brand for the time being.
