Caile Ferate Romane 0-6-0 Locomotives in Romania
Class Details by Steve Llanso of Sweat House Media
Class 46-65 (Locobase 1504)
Data from A E Durrant, Locomotives of Eastern Europe (New York: Augustus M Kelley, Publishers, 1966), pp 45, 49. Works numbers were 6230-6239 1911, 6639-6648 in 1912.
Class 688-743 (Locobase 1505)
Data from A[nthony] E[dward] Durrant, Locomotives of Eastern Europe (New York: Augustus M Kelley, Publishers, 1966), pp 44, 49; with data double-checked on the First Romanian railway club [
] -- visited 14 January 2004--link no longer active).
These were typical all-adhesion goods locomotives suitable for relatively light or local traffic.
Class Ferrum (Locobase 4781)
One of a series of Polish industrial locomotives built after World War II. Rated at 400 hp, it reached 40 kmh (25 mph).
Data from Phillipe Quiot on the website [] . These are part of the export production of this class. Quiot could find nothing more about this small batch.
