i find the website quite easy to use - but the schedules aren't posted a long way ahead - i forget how long
so if you can't get the dates you are looking for - look at the same day of the week at an earlier date - the schedules won't change much - if at all
it is necessery to validate your ticket before you board a train in the little yellow boxes on the platform

No, I can't ;-)
That's because the database for the rail system is not loaded yet for June 27th (the database is incomplete after June 12th or so, for which there will be a major reload).
However, not to worry, as train schedules don't vary that much over the course of the year. In fact, this line probably varies more between weekday and Sunday than from winter to summer (because of the commuter trains).
So, look at the schedule for next Sunday (May 16th)...you will see umpty-bumpty trains all day long. I would suggest just taking a regional train, as they don't require reservations, and they are only 8.40 euro each way. And, really, the higher speed trains aren't all that much faster on this line.
OK?

You can go straight to the English pages of Trenitalia here:

As Bill says, June 27th is still too far away but times and fares won't change much, if at all.
Journey time is from 1h 20m, one-way fare from 8.40 euro. Both vary according to the departure time you choose (there are plenty of departures on Sundays).
