Rete celere del Canton Ticino

The Rete celere del Canton Ticino (literally: Ticino fast network) is a commuter rail network serving the Swiss canton of Ticino and the north-western part of the Italian region Lombardy. It is similar to the S-Bahn networks to be found in the German speaking regions of Switzerland, a similarity accentuated by the use of S prefixes for its line numbers.
