Ho scattato questa foto dalla balaustra di una piazzetta di Montevecchia, che si affaccia su questi terrazzamenti, la prospettiva è tale per cui sembra una foto aerea, ma non lo è...
da Wikipedia:
La Brianza è una regione della Lombardia, per la quale non esiste un vero e proprio riconoscimento politico-amministrativo. Per quanto concerne l’etimologia, il nome Brianza deriva probabilmente dal termine celtico brig (colle, altura) il quale si mantiene col medesimo significato ancora oggi – per lo più nella forma bricch – in molti dialetti settentrionali, tra cui il brianzolo[. Come confini generali della regione si possono indicare il Canale Villoresi a sud, l’Adda a est, le valli prealpine a nord e il fiume Seveso a ovest. Nonostante la mancanza di un’istituzione territoriale, il senso d’appartenenza a quest’area è decisamente spiccato tra i suoi abitanti. Le diverse zone della Brianza presentano del resto numerosi tratti che le accomunano tra loro e le differenziano dal resto della Lombardia, di natura geografica, demografica, economica, sociale, culturale e linguistica.

Zwischen internationalen Magistralen und dicht getakteten Vorortlinien findet sich in der Brianza, dem nördlich von Mailand gelegenen Hügelland, auch noch ein Stück klassischer, beschaulicher Eisenbahn. Auf der Nebenstrecke von Como nach Molteno und weiter nach Lecco hängt (noch) kein Fahrdraht und eine Reihe von Zwischenhalten zeigt eine Facette der Eisenbahn, die in einem kaum stärker denkbaren Kontrast zu manch moderner - zwar barrierefreier, aber doch auch optisch kühler - "Verkehrsstation" steht. Der Bahnsteig vieler Haltepunkte besteht hinter der einfachen Bahnsteigkante nur aus Rasen - Kein Asphalt, keine Fliesen, nur frisch gemähtes Gras, Blumenbeete und ein paar Bäumchen.
Auch die alten Empfangsgebäude sind noch erhalten. Und dabei nicht einmal verwaist, sondern in unterschiedlicher Nutzung. Ihr Zustand oszilliert zwischen leichter Patina und dezenter Renovierung. Das von Casletto nutzt die Kommune, in Brenna hat sich die Greenpeace-Ortsgruppe eingerichtet und der alte Bahnhof von Moiana dient als Wohnhaus.
Was liegt also näher, als die Einladung zu einer kleinen Zeitreise anzunehmen und das Ensemble mit einem passenden Fahrzeug in Szene zu setzen? Sehr gelegen kommt da der "Lario Express", ein Sonderzug, den die Fondazione FS an ausgewählten Wochenenden von Mailand aus auf den Weg nach Como und Lecco schickt. Am 11. Dezember 2022, dem letzten Fahrtag der Saison, war für die Traktion des Treno storico 96003 (Milano Centrale - Lecco) D445 1001 eingeteilt. Die 1974 von Fiat Savigliano an die Ferrovie dello Stato gelieferte Lok verbrachte den Großteil ihrer aktiven Karriere am anderen Ende des Stiefels, ehe sie nach ihrem Ausscheiden beim Depot Reggio di Calabria ins Ausbesserungswerk Rimini überführt wurde, das sie im Oktober 2020 in der klassischen Livrea verde/isabella wieder verließ. Damit zeigt sie sich nun weitgehend im Betriebszustand der 90er-Jahre, also nach dem Austausch der runden Original-Frontfensterscheiben durch stabilere Pendants und der Nachrüstung mit 78-poliger Wendezugsteuerung.
Übrigens: Bis 2026 soll auch Como - Lecco unter Strom gesetzt werden, sicherlich mit einem Umbau der "stazioni sul prato", denen Giorgio Stagni auf seiner Seite einen ausführlichen Bildbericht gewidmet hat www.stagniweb.it/Foto6.asp?File=co-lc1&Tipo=index&... , verbunden... www.espansionetv.it/2022/12/06/elettrificazione-como-lecco/
1929/30 Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 SS roadster body by Carrozzeria Brianza, a Milan associate of Zagato. What a rush...at speed on Hiway 1 on a sunny day, in this gorgeous creature.
In 1929/30, the 6C 1750 was Alfa Romeo's most capable sports-racing car, winning races all over Europe. It was available in three versions, the naturally-aspirated Turismo, the twin-cam Super Sport available with or without a supercharger, and the supercharged Gran Sport. Both supercharged models had Alfa-built Roots-type blowers, although the Super Sport had a smaller, geared-up supercharger.
This 4th Series 6C 1750 Super Sport was ordered by Prince Alberto Manganelli of Sicily and is one of three short-chassis cars built for the 1930 Targa Florio and driven by Campari, Nuvolari and Maggi. It later competed in the XI Gran Premio d'Italia at Monza in September of 1933. While spending recent years in Australia it has taken part in several Mille Miglia retrospectives in Italy, and on this day it was in California!
The Alfa Romeo 6C-1750 impressed from the moment it was first released. It would win every major racing event it was entered in during 1929 including the Grand Prix of Belgium, Spain, Tunis and Monza as well as that year’s Mille Miglia in the hands of Giuseppe Campari and Giulio Ramponi. It would also take out the Brooklands Double Twelve and the Ulster TT that year while the following year would see it win the Spa 24-hours and other road races and hill climbs. It also repeated its win in the Mille Miglia, this time driven by the great Tazio Nuvolari, this event legendary for his duel with teammate Varzi over the last 600km. Nuvolari would overtake Varzi in the early morning with his headlights switched off eventually finishing seven minutes ahead.......sneaky but effective.

Il TSR R3 036 è una delle composizioni più corte che si trovano sui regionali della Milano-Asso. Eccolo attraversare la tenuta Pomelasca mentre il sole riscalda la Brianza dopo un'abbondante nevicata

L'autunno è esploso in Brianza, dove si intravede sulle cime anche la prima neve. Dalla stazione di Mariano Comense riparte il TSR 81 in formazione da 4 pezzi, una delle composizioni che meglio rappresentano il traffico ferroviario di questi ultimi anni da/per Asso
