Nice video! I especially liked the scene of the train going up the narrow little back alley.

[@blackthorne57]

Thanks, thats the last of my two recent visits to Romania. I will now have to sort out something from my archives to edit, as they say watch this space.

Awesome video in beautiful countryside and thank you for sharing. May I ask where is the location n Romania? I have plans to visit Bulgaria this summer and would like to visit that area in Romania.

[@blackthorne57]

Hi, Thanks for your interest in my Romanian videos, they were all shot in the north of the country, not far from the Ukraine border. The nearest large town and airport is Cluj. With the exception of the Wasser Valley you are very unlikely to see any steam locos running or indeed any trains at all. The trains in my Romanian videos were the result of organised photographic charters. The Wasser Valley line with its headquarters in the small town of Viseu de Sus run regular steam hauled tourist trains in the summer and autumn. It is well worth a visit. I suggest you do an internet search for Viseu de Sus to get the latest information on when trains will be running.

[@danas7166]

it is near Suceava country...in my region..I can help with info..

[@robt2151]

This is at Moldovita in Suceava county, the nearest large town is Suceava and its newly refurbished airport (SCV) has regular direct flights from the UK and elsewhere. I rode on this railway in summer 2017 and there were 7 passenger cars, each full. There is a daily tourist timetable which includes three steam-hauled return trips per day in peak season; see www.cfi.ro/index.php?p=1_12 It is disappointing when people suggest that Romania's attractions are limited to the west of the country!

Dar unde este trenulețul care cara material la bicaz pentru fabricarea cimentului si pentru azbociment

[@blackthorne57]

Moldovita este la mare distanță de Bicaz Cimenteria Bicaz a fost închisă în 1989. Azbestul nu mai este folosit nicăieri, deoarece reprezintă un pericol pentru sănătate. Aceasta a fost o cale ferată forestieră, nu cred că a fost folosită vreodată pentru o fabrică de ciment. Acum este doar o cale ferată turistică. Moldovita is a long way from Bicaz The Bicaz cement works closed in 1989. Asbestos is no longer used anywhere because it is a danger to health. This was a forestry railway, I do not think it was ever used for a cement works. It is now only a tourist railway.

[@samaikens4816]

Whats the little car behind engine?

[@blackthorne57]

it is a shelter for the brakeman.

[@bobyharyadi990]

7:25 best drive steam 👍👍👍👍👍

[@ShatNdd]

looks like in a russian cartoon "one cowboy two cowboy"

[@paulthomas975]

How did WW2 affect that area and how many people from that area are missing because of that war?

[@blackthorne57]

Sorry, I am not in a position to personally answer your question. I suggest you search Wikipedia for 'Ronania in World War 2' This will take you to an article that may give the information you require.
