Italo to Implement Starlink on Fleet, Tickers: ITALO
Italo, the Italian high-speed rail operator, announced the rollout of SpaceX's Starlink satellite internet across its fleet, becoming the first major train company to rely on the low-Earth-orbit service. Following a nearly yearlong testing phase, the rollout is scheduled to be completed by 2027, aiming to provide passengers with stable, high-speed connectivity for streaming, video calls, and work on board. Trials by Italy's Ferrovie dello Stato and Scotland's ScotRail preceded the decision, with SNCF considering similar satellite solutions in France.
