Hellow to all, here are photos with Romanian locos and trains. More of them at max resolution are on my site http://www.cfr.metrouusor.com/ (RO) 4 LDH locos in Bucharest Passager Depot
Yes, a big part of locos and passenger coaches is modernised, most of them can run over 160-200kmh but the rails are very old. On most of them max speed is 80-100kmh.
Yes its true. I've been back to Bihor, Oradea this is where I'm from. And the rails are in much need of upgrading. I also model in N scale. Do you model.
I build tram and bus models at 1:35 scale, I plan to build a loco and a passenger coache later this year. Here are some of my models, I have build almost 50 models starting 2006.
Marian, Thank you for posting these, and welcome to TrainBoard! Are most locomotives in Romania electric? Are you a railway engineer? Adam
Welcome to TrainBoard!!!!!!! Always great to see photographs like this from all around the world!!!!!!! :thumbs_up: :thumbs_up: :thumbs_up: :thumbs_up:
Most locomotives for important routes are electric. I am not a railway engineer, I work as a tehnician for ICPE-SAERP.SA Bucharest, we are developing static converters and urban traction equipment for passenger coaches, trams, trolleybuses and hi-voltage equipments. See some photos with one of passenger coaches build in 2009.
