This list is based on the timetable in force from 10 December 2023. Although the timetable is shown as valid until 8 June 2024, most long-distance services are shown as operating only until March. Such trains are not indicated by note 'D' (for a service only running on certain dates), because it is a reasonable expectation that their period of operation will be extended or a similar service is provided instead. It is assumed that the timetable will continue to be updated and reissued regularly, as has been the case since summer 2020. Users are recommended to check the Trenitalia website to ensure they are using the latest version of the timetable.
Table numbers quoted here are from In Treno Tutt'Italia, the official Trenitalia timetable. Standard abbreviations are explained here.
Map references for each route entry are given in parentheses ( ). References prefixed "ERA-E" refer to the European Railway Atlas (All-Europe Edition) by M.G. Ball. References prefixed "ERA-R" refer to the European Railway Atlas (Regional Series: Book 2) by M.G. Ball. References prefixed "S+W", or in italic, refer to Atlante ferroviaro d'Italia e Slovenia by Schweers + Wall.
Two useful symbols exist which show the booked route for trains not calling at a station: in the middle of the train column, a vertical bar "|" means that the train passes through the station without stopping, whereas a middle dot "·" means that the train does not pass through that station but instead takes a different route.
Obscure services
1o Bivio Caserta Nord - 2o Bivio Caserta Nord (Interconnessione Caserta Nord)
[80] (55, not shown, 77C4) IT16/131
This 6.1km connecting line allows trains on the AV line from Roma to Napoli to connect with the old main line from Roma to Napoli via Caserta and is used by AV services from Roma to Lecce ( and vice versa) which call at Caserta and not Napoli Centrale.

Aversa avoiding line: Gricignano-Teverola - S Marcellino-Frignano
[85] (55B3, 150C3-150D3) IT16/132
This west to east curve is used by trains between the Formia and Caserta lines, to avoid reversal at Aversa. It is used by some trains between Roma and Caserta, because the Formia route is faster than the original main line via Cassino. However, Alta Velocita trains between Roma, Bari and Lecce via Caserta use the new high speed line and not this route.

Gricignano-Teverola - Cancello (via Maddaloni-Marcianise)
[85] (53B1 not shown, 150D3-151C3) IT16/133
The following trains run via S Marcellino-Frignano, but are not scheduled to pass through Aversa or Caserta. It appears that they use the Aversa avoiding line (see IT16/132 above) and the freight line between Gricignano-Teverola and Cancello. No previous passenger use of this route was known. The train from Torino is confirmed as using this line, so that from Milano can reasonably be expected to do likewise.

Madonnelle - Volla (Circumvesuviana)
[508] (55B3 not shown, 153A2) IT16/134
This south to north route allows trains to run between the line to San Giorgio a Cremano via Villa Visconti and the line towards Baiano without reversal.
The following trains were running in December 2010, but had been suspended for some time by November 2013. They are still shown in the Circumvesuviana timetable and the compilers would welcome information as to whether they are currently operating.
SuX | 1546/1949 | San Giorgio a Cremano - 16:40 Madonnelle – Acerra | |
SuX | 1950/1551 | Acerra - 17:29 Volla - San Giorgio a Cremano |
Linea Monte Vesuvio: Napoli Centrale (Bivio/PC Casoria) – Salerno
[86] (52B1 to 54A1 mostly not shown, 153A2-154D2) IT16/135
This line is used by all trains between Napoli and Salerno which are not scheduled to stop intermediately. The southeast end of the line is also used thus:
- Salerno – Bivio S Lucia: All trains between Salerno and Nocera Inferiore not scheduled to stop intermediately.
- Salerno – Bivio Sarno: All trains between Salerno and Sarno. This includes overnight trains via Salerno which do not call or pass through Napoli Centrale. These run via Cancello.
