Diesel and Electric traction in Romania

Hello my dear friends, I came on this forum to represent Romania, my native country and introduce you to our locomotives.First I will post some movies from my youtube channel and I will also leave a short description about the locomotives.

In this video you will see an InterCity train from Budapest Keleti to Bucharest entering Sinaia train station.The locomotive is 41-0105-1 ( the Electric locomotive built in Craiova at ElectroPutere has a power of 5100Kw about 6500 horsepower and it is a plant on wheels, it was built unde license from ASEA Switzerland at Craiova with a high number of locomotives entering mass production in the comunism under the rule of Nicolae Ceausescu)

Here you can see and InterRegio train from Timisoara to Bucharest leaving Sibiu Train station, the locomotive is a 2100 horsepower locomotive, it has GM motor placed on a Class 60/62 platform, the production of these new types of locomotives was a great achivement for ElectroPutere Craiova, they wanted to update the old diesel locomotive, the Sulzer was the perferct platform for the new GM motor and the auxilary units.
