Trans Megathread for the Week of 2024-10-07 to 2024-10-13 - ETR 600

The ETR 600 is a class of trains built by Alstom, and are used on the routes between Roma-Bolzano and Roma-Trieste. The train tilts, using Pendolino technology, allowing higher speeds to be maintained through corners without causing discomfort to passengers. The trains are operated by Trenitalia, originally under the Frecciargento (Silver Arrow) branding used for trains capable of travelling between 250 km/h and 285 km/h, In 2022 they were rebranded under Frecciarossa (Red Arrow) after the Frecciargento branding was retired.

The ETR 600 has also been adapted for use in China as the China Railway CRH5 Hexie. Initially 60 sets were ordered, of which nine were manufactured by Alstom and 51 by CNR Changchun Railway Vehicles. Since, another 80 sets have been created for a total of 140, operating across China's north from Beijing to Ürümqi.

  • Ranma should just stop boymoding and go to school as a girl.
    We don't need all these zany hijinks trying to hide your secret.

    • Ranma also works as a trans man allegory too~

      • I think they are gender-fluid if you actually had to apply a label tbh.

        • Ranma generally wants to be a guy again, except in my fav fanfics lol. It's one of his main motivations besides getting out of all the harem shenanigans. There were a few episodes where he gets hit in the head in girlmode and forgets he was ever a dude (a subsequent hit on the head changes him back), or there were ones on background where he'd like go out in girlmode so he can eat parfaits - but otherwise, he just wants to be a guy. He gets more at peace with the curse and uses it to his advantage but I don't think he'd be proper genderfluid, cause then he'd probably not be looking for a cure so bad.
