LEROTAIE Association www.lerotaie.com Tel 340 0906221
Ours is an association of non-profit volunteers. Born thanks to a group of friends who met since 2002 to discuss and exchange opinions and ideas, it has been regularly established and registered since 2007 at the Revenue Agency of Isernia and registered in the Regional Register of associations of Molise.
The aim of the association is to spread and practice rail modeling and safeguard the railway heritage (present, past and future) of our region.
Since November 2013 we have had a location where we can regularly perform our duties. Thanks to the Provincial Administration of Isernia that has allowed us to take advantage of the former locomotive depot of the FS station today on loan for use to the Isernian institution.
Since then we have never stopped in the realization of the model and the museum of memorabilia. We have done a lot but there is still much to do.
In the Museum of railway memorabilia we keep everything that is currently abandoned in the stations and along the lines, we have many objects and small railway vehicles that are just waiting to be admired.
We have created a small themed library, with a considerable amount of texts also from the early 1900s.
For the future we would like to rely on historical rolling stock, for example ALn 668 series 1800 of imminent provision to keep alive the memory of machines that have written the history of Italian railways. In this regard, we point out that we are in possession of the entire recovery maneuvering bench in Benevento upon regular request and authorization granted, in order to be able to create a simulator. It would also be nice to have a dignified conservation for the two tenders (735.128 with trolleys and 680.037 with three axles) abandoned in the Isernia station, currently in the open air at the mercy of bad weather, vandalism, and even a refuge for homeless people who have made it their home resulting in the accumulation of waste of all kinds.
Another objective is the recovery in Isernia of the two tracks with a revolving platform and a former coal-warehouse warehouse currently in total state of abandonment and decay, on this project we have already activated with the mayor Brasiello who, sharing the idea, has provided us with ample willingness to create, once the area was acquired, a green railway theme park in this regard, a visit to our association of Eng. Luigi Cantamessa, director of the FS Foundation who met the local administrators (go to the article).
We are also working, in addition to organizing historic trains, also to restore the famous Pescara-Naples (the Neapolitan) on the Sulmona-Carpinone line the only salvation for this beloved railway.
We will do our best and never give up, working in silence with the competent bodies because we prefer action to useless propaganda.

Abruzzo Parks: excursions
Abruzzo Parks promotes the attendance and knowledge of Abruzzo Parks and Reserves, intended as an organic and indissoluble whole; it therefore operates throughout the regional territory, from the mountains to the sea, going as far as the Sibillini National Park and the Gargano National Park.
From north to south, the parks create, following the conformation of the Apennine ridge, almost a single and vast area of protected territory which contains some of the most precious and intact natural environments of the whole of Europe. Flanked by a whole system of more or less extensive natural reserves, they do not limit their function to the conservation of the natural heritage, but include within them remarkable historical, artistic and cultural values.
On the Abruzzo Parks website it will be possible to find news, events, insights, but above all excursions, trekking and thematic itineraries related to the entire "green Abruzzo" (the parks and reserves of Abruzzo have for some time been presented as a single brand in fairs national and foreign) and for each category of users (families, athletes, schools, gourmets, photographers, researchers).
The portal, dynamic and open to social networks, will become the natural point of reference for the visitor who, on his trip to Abruzzo, will be able to experience the most varied realities.

Great time for the British to buy a property in Abruzzo (Italy), as pound soars versus euro.
Peter Lavelle June 2014
Do you plan to buy a property in Abruzzo (Italy) this year? If so, you'll be pleased to know it's become much cheaper to buy an Abruzzo property recently, because the pound is rocketing versus the euro. To be specific, sterling hit 1.2563 against the common currency recently, its strongest in 20 months, or since October 1st 2012.
What does this mean for you when you buy a property in Abruzzo? Well, it'll be much cheaper to do so, because you'll get more euros when you exchange currencies. In fact, were you to exchange £ 1,250, you'd get + € 150 more now than if you'd done so back when the pound was at its weakest, at 1.1371, on March 12th last year.
Moreover, there's an excellent chance it could become even better value to buy a property in Abruzzo this year, if the pound continues to climb versus the euro. Sterling could rise further, because the Bank of England is predicted to become the 1st major bank since the financial crash to hike interest rates, later this year.
With this in mind, it's shaping up to be a great time to buy a property in Abruzzo, as the strong pound cuts the cost of doing so! About the author
