Thanks for mentioning that. There are quite a few nice pictures on the official site, although I think the site was better pre-opening. It was opened in time for the Winter Olympics, but doesn't actually serve the main train stations in Turin yet (it will from late 2006).
For those interested, the line is a Siemen's VAL system, with rubber tyred 2.08m wide trains. The TBM bored tunnel has both tracks and emergency walkways in one 7.8m diameter monotube, and the stations are of cut and cover construction. Actual frequency is 30tph during the peaks, with trains reversing beyond the platforms.
