'Mode': TO,AROUND
Category: Subway/Metro
Getting TO/AROUND: You know that your Metro bus ticket BIT has to be validated when starting the journey. This is a must. But what if the validating machine "obliteratrice" doesn't work? First try another one, but it can happen that all machines of a station are "fuori servizi" don't work. During all February 2008 the six machines at the urban railway station Gemelli (deserving the major Roman hospital) were out of service!
What to do? Don't think it is not your problem. On your ticket is written, only in Italian, in very small characters, that you have to validate your ticket by writing on it datum, time, station "In caso di malfunzionamento dell'obliteratrice il viaggiatore dovra annulare il titolo di viaggio apponendovi la data, l'ora ed il numero di vettura o la stazione sul retro". Do that, at Gemelli station (urban train line FM3) I had just hand filled in my BIT ticket that there was a control on the train.
Another thing; when validating your ticket in a machine turn the illustrated side down. The machine prints on the upper side.

icunme Sat Aug 1, 2009 06:08 UTC Now I must look for this Monte Argentario area. Must be a lovely day trip. Ciao, Carol | Nemorino Mon Jun 1, 2009 22:57 UTC Me again, just checking back to read your new tips and updates since my last visit to this page on October 9, 2008. I hope Emperor Augustus had a sense of humor & laughed when his curule chair collapsed in the Theatre of Marcellus. (But I doubt it.) | MM212 Mon Jun 1, 2009 22:54 UTC Je vois que nous partageons une fascination de la Ville éternelle: i pini di roma, foro romano, les églises, et les musées. J'ai même lu les Mémoires d'Hadrien (en français)! Rome me manque déjà... | hunterV Fri May 29, 2009 19:45 UTC ><><>< Great detail, thanx! ><><><>< |
