The Thello company, a subsidiary of the Italian state railway company Trenitalia, announced on its website the closure on July 1st of the two lines it operates in France: the Paris-Milan-Venice night train and the Marseille-Nice-Milan route.
Services on the Marseille-Nice-Milan daytime line “will stop permanently on July 1, 2021,” according to the company. The last train from Milan to Nice will run on June 29, and the last Nice-Milan service will be on June 30, according to Thello’s website.
Thello had been operating the line since 2014 with theoretically three trains per day, but the frequency was reduced due to Covid-19, offering only one daily round trip from Nice to Milan.
