Line SFM4 is part of the Turin Metropolitan Railway Service. It connects the Cirié station with the Alba railway station using the Turin-Ceres railway , the Turin railway link, the Carmagnola-Bra railway and the Cavallermaggiore-Alessandria railway.
The trains, 31 in total per day, run hourly (two-hourly on holidays). The main interchange hubs are Turin Lingotto and Turin Porta Susa,[1] both stations offer a connection to Turin Metro (Lingotto and Porta Susa metro stations respectively).
History
The line was opened on 9 December 2012.[2]
In autumn 2016, electrification works were carried out between Bra station and Alba station , at the end of which a direct connection between Alba and Turin was made possible. In addition, on weekdays except Saturdays, two pairs of trains are available to and from Turin Porta Nuova railway station , thus connecting the city of Alba to the historic centre of Turin.
Until 20 January 2024, before the activation of the connection with Ciriè along the Turin-Ceres railway, the line terminated at the Turin Stura station.[3]
