Tourists board 100-year-old steam train at Vatican's railway station and travel to Castel Gandolfo in the hills outside Rome
Rail transport in Vatican City
The Vatican unveiled a train service that, for the first time, will take tourists from the railway station inside the walls of the city state to Castel Gandolfo.
Shrouded in black smoke and white steam, it looked like something out of a Harry Potter film, but the 100-year-old steam train was bound not for Hogwarts but an equally fabled destination – the exclusive summer residence of the Pope.
