Methinks an American person driving in my country (🇮🇹) might be a bit disoriented by how the road signs mostly use symbols instead of inscriptions. I guess you wouldn't imagine that the blue square road sign in Italy means “Dead end road”/“No through road” @NiveusLepus

Since 1950 the city of Modena has got a trolleybus network composed of 3+2 routes (6, 7, 7A, 11 and 11A) and these are the trolleybuses that are in service (pics in the links

For my new friend @NiveusLepus...

You have to know that among my interests there are also buses (models, companies who make them, technologies etc.) and here is a link to a pic of a bus model of my city I like a lot...

I'll need all the good vibes possible from all of you #CoSoNauts: on the next Saturday I'll do an ultrasound for a lower back lump that is concerning me and I really hope it won't be anything serious

Thinking of my bestie @researchbuzz right now...

Suddenly I felt like lonely and lost despite in fact I'm not alone... 🙁😥

Seems that my latest music post flopped (as usual) but I don't despair

G'day everyone with this #CoSoMusic post and this upbeat Italo Disco song from 1984 that gives me strong vibes of the drawing of the Picchio Rosso mascot my friend Juli made for me (you can see it as a pinned post of my profile). The original version of this song is in Italian and it's titled “Sonnambulismo”

Hello everyone, how you are doing lately? I just checked in on #CoSo to see if everything is ok 😊.

@researchbuzz

I'm realising that being grateful for the little things is only an optical illusion 😞.

For today's #CoSoArt post here is another commission I requested to my awesome friend from FL Juli, this is the mascot of the former discotheque Picchio Rosso of Formigine, Modena

@researchbuzz

The white background is because the away jersey must be different from the home jersey

In the meantime I treated myself with some stuff of my favourite Brazilian soccer team, @researchbuzz 😊 💙🤍❤️🦁

In the meantime I corrected the Google Bard AI, @researchbuzz: after asking to Bard which European countries use the blue for their motorways road signs Bard told me that the green motorways road signs were introduced in Italy in 1959. I wrote a feedback mentioning the 1962 experimentations and then the Public Works Ministry circular letter 9540/1969 that officially introduced the green motorway roadsigns in Italy

For today's #CoSoCars post here is the Maserati 3200 GT. It mounted a Maserati AM 585 twin turbo V8 engine of 3217 cc and a power output of 370 PS/272 kW. The available transmissions were a Getrag 226 6-speed manual transmission (1998-2001) or a BTR M72LE 4-speed automatic transmission (1999-2002).
