Line 11 (Italian: Linea 11), also known as Rainbow line (Italian: Linea Arcobaleno), as each station is identified by a different colour, is a rapid transit line that connects Naples with its northern suburbs.
Route[edit]
The line connects Naples (Piscinola Scampia station) to the town of Aversa. Only Piscinola station (shared with line 1) is within the municipality of Naples.
Management[edit]
The line is managed by Ente Autonomo Volturno (EAV) company.
History[edit]
The first section of the line, between Piscinola and Mugnano, was opened in 2005.[1]
In 2009, the line was extended from Mugnano to Aversa Centro, with two intermediate stops in Giugliano and Aversa Ippodromo.[2]

Trains usually travel every 15 minutes, and every 10 minutes during peak hours.[3]
