Good to Know
The Regionale Veloce (RV) trains tend to be around 20 mins faster than the Regionale (R) trains.
During the day there is usually a RV and/or R train departure in most hours, but on Mon-Friday mornings there is a three hour gap between departures.
Though as explained our Italian Train Travel Guide this lack of late morning departures is fairly typical in Italy.

SMTJ has singled out these EuroCity trains as they tend to be cheaper than the Frecce trains which also travel between Verona and Trento; and they're less than 4 mins slower.
So these trains can be the best option for Verona to Trento journeys if you can book in advance and don't mind having to travel by a specific train.
Between 09:04 and 17:02 they depart from Verona every other hour.
However, if you will be using a InterRail or Eurail pass in Italy, avoid these trains and take the alternative Regionale (R/RV) trains instead.

The express train service between Verona and Trento is provided by;
(1) Frecce trains operated by Trenitalia, and

(3) other Italo trains
Tickets for the Trenitalia Frecce trains and the EC trains are placed on sale 4 months in advance (usually), but the Italo train tickets are made available 5 months ahead (usually)
If you're booking no more than 4 months ahead and have no particular preference for the train that you will be taking, **then the price and departure times of the EC, Frecce and Italo trains can be directly compared on Trainline and Omio.
