Trenitalia Tper (TTX[1]) is a company operating train services in the Emilia-Romagna region, in Italy, on railway lines overseen by both Rete Ferroviaria Italiana and Ferrovie Emilia Romagna (FER).

The current company was born on 1 January 2020 from the merger of the railway transport division of TPER, which at that time operated railway transportation services on the network operated by FER, and the division of Trenitalia operating local railway transportation services in Emilia-Romagna, on the network operated by RFI.

On FER lines:

The then Tper also used to operate the short-lived Portomaggiore-Dogato Railway, inaugurated in 2016 and closed less than one year later due to the low usage of trains, the lower frequencies of the trains (4 return journeys per day except on Sundays and Public Holiday), the 20 minutes of journey for just 13 km and one intermediate station and its lack of electrification, which caused lower speed and made impossible the usage of electric trains connecting to Bologna from Portomaggiore.
