Regionale Veloce (RV) are the semi-fast train services in Italy on which many different types of train are used, on routes they share with the slower Regionale, these RV services are faster because they skip more stations.

On the Italian national railway, Trenitalia, RV stands for Regionale Veloce, which translates to "Fast Regional" train. These trains are a step above the standard "Regionale" (R) service. While a standard regional train stops at every single station along a route, the Regionale Veloce only stops at major towns and more significant stations, making it considerably faster for inter-city travel within a specific region. In 2026, these are some of the best-value tickets in Italy, as they are significantly cheaper than the high-speed "Frecciarossa" trains but often cover the same distance in only 20–30% more time. Unlike high-speed trains, RV tickets have a fixed price that does not increase as the departure date approaches, and they do not require (nor allow) seat reservations. You simply buy a ticket, validate it (if it's a paper ticket), and sit in any available seat. They are ideal for popular routes like Venice to Verona or Florence to Pisa, offering a reliable and authentic Italian commuting experience without the premium "tourist" pricing of the luxury express lines.
