CFR class 41 electric locomotive with a passenger train, Romania


The Căile Ferate Române (CFR)'s Class 41 units are high-speed variants of the iconic LE 5100 'family'. 

The 5,100 kW Co-Co type were built by Electroputere under ASEA license -- derived from Swedish SJ Rb design -- and capable of speeds up to 160 km/h.

Halta Posada (Posada stop) in Prahova County along the scenic Prahova Valley is situated in the Carpathian mountain region between Comarnic and Sinaia on the main electrified trunk line (Line 300) connecting Bucharest to Brașov.  The platform doesn't seem to have had any maintenance for many years.
