Rail travellers in Italy faced long delays or cancellations on Wednesday after a technical malfunction on a stretch of line between the Italian capital's two main stations disrupted services. "It's just been chaos as we try to figure out and navigate the station," said Rachel Dame, an American tourist traveling to Florence from Rome's main Termini station, where screens displayed delays for most destinations. The problems stemmed from a failure at 6:20 a.m. (0420 GMT) of an electric cabin that supplies energy to an intersection between Termini and Tiburtina stations in Rome, said Gianpiero Strisciuglio, CEO of Rete Ferroviaria Italiana, which manages Italy's railway infrastructure.
