The Bologna–Ancona railway is an Italian railway that connects the city of Bologna with the city of Ancona, passing through the Po Valley to Rimini and along the Adriatic coast for the rest of the line.

History

Construction

Under a decree dated 21 May 1856, the government of the Papal States gave the Шаблон:Interlanguage link a concession to build and operate a railway between the cities of Ancona and Bologna. The railway had to be built within ten years, and Casa Valdés' operation would last 95 years. On 16 August 1856, the government approved a statute founding the Società Generale delle Strade Ferrate Romane, established for the construction and operation of the Rome–Ancona railway and its extension to Bologna. This company was the concessionaire of the entire Pio Centrale railway network, in honour of Pope Pius IX, which also included the Romę–Civitavecchia railway. It would also support the Austrian Lombardy–Venetia railway network by extending the railway to Ferrara and up to the Po.

The railway was opened in phases in autumn 1861, when the territories were annexed to the Kingdom of Italy. The Bologna Centrale–Forlì section was opened on 1 September, the Forlì–Rimini section on 5 October, and the section to Ancona on 17 November.Шаблон:Sfn The opening ceremony for the line took place seven days earlier.

19th century

The Bologna–Ancona railway, along with others belonging to Pio Centrale, were assigned to the Società per le Strade Ferrate Romane (Roman Railways Company) established following the reorganisation of the railways authorised by the law of 14 May 1865, no 2279. As a result of the Roman railways' poor financial condition, which worsened after the 1870s, the management of the line finally passed to the Società Italiana per le Strade Ferrate Meridionali, which retained it following the 1885 reorganisations.Шаблон:Citation needed After 1905, following the enactment of the "Fortis" law, which nationalised the railways, the management passed to Ferrovie dello Stato.

In 1891, Riccione railway station was inaugurated: it had been a temporary stop from 1 January 1862, and a permanent stop from 1865.

20th century

The line was doubled in the early twentieth century. Electrification at 3000 volts direct-current was inaugurated on 12 November 1938 and went into operation two days later.

21st century

Between 2016 and 2018, Riccione's railway station was modernised as part of a programme to increase the speed of trains on the line. As part of the works, the northbound track was moved closer towards the seaside.

Features

The line is a double-track line entirely electrified at 3000 volts DC.Шаблон:Sfn The management of the infrastructure is carried out by the Rete Ferroviaria Italiana.

It is equipped with the Sistema Controllo Marcia Treno train-control system, centralised traffic control (Bologna Centrale–Castelbolognese Riolo Terme) and Sistema di Comando e Controllo (Castelbolognese Riolo Terme-Ancona Marittima) (another form of centralised traffic control).

Operated by the central operations managers based in Bologna Centrale (Bologna Centrale–Rimini) and at Bari Lamasinata (Rimini–Ancona Marittima), it uses the RS4 Codici train protection system allowing maximum speeds between 115 and 200 km/h.

Since 2015, the line has been undergoing major infrastructure upgrading works, allowing the maximum speed of the line to be raised to Шаблон:Convert.

Route

The line has a total length of Шаблон:Convert, with an average gradient between 0% and 0.7%.

Throughout its course, the railway runs within a few kilometres of the A14 tolled highway, which serves the same route as the ancient Via Aemilia between Bologna and Rimini and the Via Flaminia between Rimini and Fano, and relieves the Шаблон:Interlanguage link and Шаблон:Interlanguage link state roads, which follow the Roman roads more closely.

Bologna to Rimini

The railway begins at Шаблон:Rws. It continues southeast through Шаблон:Rws, passes under Bologna's belt railway, and crosses over the Шаблон:Interlanguage link.

Leaving Bologna, the line continues southeast through the stations of Шаблон:Rws (opened in 2008), Шаблон:Interlanguage link, Шаблон:Interlanguage link, Шаблон:Interlanguage link, before reaching Imola. Until 1944, the line at Imola interchanged with the Шаблон:Interlanguage link, which it passed under after Imola.

Following Imola, the line continues southeast to the station of Шаблон:Interlanguage link, which was adjacent to the terminus of the Шаблон:Interlanguage link that closed in 1933. At the next station, Faenza, the railway interchanges with the Florence–Faenza railway and the Шаблон:Interlanguage link.

The next station is Forlì, whose original railway station was relocated south in 1927. The line continues southeast past the stations of Шаблон:Interlanguage link (opened in 2009), Шаблон:Interlanguage link, Cesena, Шаблон:Interlanguage link, and Шаблон:Interlanguage link.

After passing Savignano, the line takes a southerly bearing, and curves on an easterly course before reaching the station of Шаблон:Interlanguage link. Here, the railway was intended to interchange with the Шаблон:Interlanguage link, a cancelled railway project that would have connected Santarcangelo to Fabriano via San Leo, Urbino, and Pergola. Past Santarcangelo, the line runs through Rimini Fiera, whose railway station opened in 2004, before turning southeast to reach Rimini railway station, where the line interchanges with the Шаблон:Interlanguage link. Rimini was also the terminus of two disused lines: the Шаблон:Interlanguage link, in operation between 1916 and 1960, which terminated at the adjacent Шаблон:Interlanguage link; and the Rimini–San Marino railway, which operated between 1932 and 1944.

Rimini to Ancona

After Rimini railway station, the line bears southeast parallel to the Adriatic Sea. It runs adjaent to Metromare, a segregated trolleybus rapid transit line between Rimini and Riccione that opened in 2019, with fifteen intermediate stops. Until the 1960s, the railway crossed the Torrente Ausa just south of Rimini's railway station: the Ausa was only diverted northwards to empty into the Marecchia in the 1960s. Rimini includes a locomotive depot with a workshop, likely established immediately after the railway¡s opening.

The line continues through the railway stations of Rimini Miramare, Riccione (opened 1891, replacing an 1862 temporary stop that was made permanent in 1865), Шаблон:Interlanguage link (opened 1949), and Шаблон:Interlanguage link.

After crossing the border between Emilia-Romagna and the Marche, it used to stop at Шаблон:Interlanguage link. The line reaches its maximum grade of 1.2% on the approach to the Cattolica tunnel.

For much of the section between the stations of Pesaro and Ancona, the railway runs next to the shoreline. Using the coastal strip, belonging to the state, was cheaper than expropriating properties, as had been done between Bologna and Rimini. Here, an ETR 450 is photographed between Шаблон:Interlanguage link and Шаблон:Interlanguage link in June 2005.

The line continues through the railway stations of Pesaro and Шаблон:Interlanguage link, where it interchanged with the Шаблон:Interlanguage link that closed in 1987. It then passes through the railway stations of Шаблон:Interlanguage link (relocated southwards in 1884), Шаблон:Interlanguage link, Шаблон:Interlanguage link (opened in 1916; a station to its south, Шаблон:Interlanguage link, closed in 1948), and Шаблон:Interlanguage link. After crossing the Esino river, it meets the Rome–Ancona railway, and continues through the stations of Шаблон:Interlanguage link, Шаблон:Interlanguage link, and Шаблон:Interlanguage link (opened 2002), finally reaching Ancona. The Adriatic railway continues southwards towards Lecce.
