Service Disruptions on Naples-Torre Annunziata Shuttle and Naples-Sorrento Trains

Shuttle services between Naples-Torre Annunziata and trains from Naples to Sorrento are forced to make extraordinary stops. From this morning, Eav has been announcing a series of cancellations of the service established between Naples and Torre Annunziata to allow commuters to go to the interchange point with the lines directed to the peninsula: "Due to the suppression of the Naples-Torre Annunziata shuttles, the direct trains from Naples to Sorrento and vice versa, until further notice, will make extraordinary stops at the stations of San Giorgio a Cremano, Portici Bellavista, Ercolano Scavi, and Torre del Greco." On the initiative, the spokesperson for the Facebook group "No to the cutting of Circumvesuviana trains", Enzo Ciniglio, and the spokesperson for the Circumvesuviana-Eav social group, Salvatore Ferraro, also intervened, writing in a note how "the week of Vesuvian commuters starts in the worst way". "A technical fault," say Ciniglio and Ferraro, "forced Eav to suppress the runs of the Naples-Torre Annunziata line and to make some stops to the direct trains for Sorrento, still leaving some stops of the Torre Annunziata line uncovered and effectively halving the service. The discomfort was immediately felt also on all other lines, adding new disservices to those already chronic." "By now," they conclude, "we can no longer count the hours taken from the daily life of Vesuvian commuters, one day yes and the other no, forced to struggle among the many disservices. Aware of the lack of rolling stock and a crumbling infrastructure, we have been asking unheard for years for a better and more efficient organization of the offer capable of providing an acceptable service on all Vesuvian lines."
