Train connection times in Milan Central

Is ten minutes to short a time to make a connection in Milan Central, assuming both trains are on time?

If you are packing light, ten minutes is adequate; but it would be a good idea to be standing at the door when your first train pulls into Milano Centrale so you can be the first one to get off.

Gene, got your email on this topic. As Tim, says, if you're organized and your ARRIVING train is ON TIME, then yes - 10 minutes is an easy connection. Just make sure you're looking for a "departure" board as soon as you exit the train so you can see the platform of your next, departing train.

Thanks for your input. Think we will plan on arriving in Milan with more time to change as we are not traveling as light as I would like due to my spouse's needs. Since we want to take the non stop to Rome, we will have a little over an hour to wait. Have a cup of coffee and people watch. G
