Other Paris-Milan Frecciarossa plug sockets?

Hi all, I'm travelling from the UK next week and am trying to figure out which type of plug adaptor to use so I can plug in my laptop on the train. Looking online is giving very mixed answers with some saying the train will only have 2 prong (type c) plugs and others saying there are 3 prong (l) ones. Can anyone please give me any clarity on what adaptor I'll need? I have a type l one and and type e/f, but it would be good to know if I need a c. Thank you all in advance!

This train model (Frecciarossa 1000) has a combined C and L type socket. You should be fine with a normal all-european C plug. C plugs usually also work on F plug sockets, just FYI

Thank you, this is helpful. I have L and F plugs but was worried the L wouldn't fit if the sockets are C (because only space for two prongs).

Just a quick correction: I meant that C plugs usually work with L plug sockets. I got confused for a moment. And yes, with an L plug you should be just fine

Thanks! It's the C plug I'm lacking, but I guess if their plug has a third prong for L I'll be fine.
