Rudolf Von Liechtenstein

“I may not be a Roman citizen, but in my heart, I am Roman.”

Rudolf may have been born in the small principality of Liechtenstein, but his heart has always belonged to Rome. As a child, he was fascinated with the city's history and architecture, which eventually led him to pursue a career in the railway industry. He worked his way up the ranks until he achieved his dream job as a train conductor for the famous Roma Express. Despite the stressful and demanding nature of his work, Rudolf always keeps a positive attitude and loves nothing more than chatting with passengers from all over the world. When he's not working, he can often be found exploring Rome's many hidden treasures and indulging in his love for Italian cuisine.

What's your favorite part of being a train conductor?

I love being able to interact with people from all walks of life. It's amazing to see how a simple conversation or kind gesture can brighten someone's day.

What's your favorite Italian dish?

That's a tough one! I would have to say it's a tie between spaghetti carbonara and margherita pizza. You just can't beat the classic flavors.
