Italian Railways, Again

Today at 4am there was a fire in one of Rome's train stations. As a result, long-distance train connections all over the country are disrupted, and it seems impossible to book a ticket online. I might have to travel 500 miles on local trains. 

ETA: Ah, Italy. I traveled perfectly on time, indeed one of the trains was five minutes early (in fact it had 175 minutes delay, on a line where there's a train every hour).

Yes. In the end Italian Railways just require lots of luck. As does lj, that was down most of yesterday.
