The CFI Govora 087 0052-3 seen between Tomsani and Foleștii de Sus
Though the passing loops had been removed earlier, possibly the decline in the speed of the track made it necessary to at least partially rebuild them. Folestii can be used through the valley-side point only, meaning the train heading to the mine that had to clear the main way had to push back down before it could continue its journey. Apart from this, many things are in great condition: after an engine replacement to a Western type at Szombathely, Hungary, the locomotives also visited Remarul in Cluj Napoca for an overhaul where they probably have received the blue-green livery. The Polish owner has also invested in reconstructing and insulating the watchmen's houses at the barriers along the line.
