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.

think i just have to accept the fact that until i can find somewhere else to work i’m gonna have hand eczema and horrible looking hands. can’t seem to shake it, though moisturising does help
At my work (hospital) we have lotion dispensers. Mixing up alcohol based cleaner and regular soap and scrub helps. We also go through an ungodly amount of gloves. I remember the first day I worked I figured I basically displaced all the careful reducing and reusing and recycling I’d done that year
oh shit you get bad hand eczema too? I thought that was only me. I brought it up to my doctor once and he never heard of that outside of being caused by some direct contact
maybe disposable gloves could help?
unfortunately i would go through a pretty crazy number a day as i work with food, so it’s not really an option
