A CFF Viseu de Sus draisine type X626 bought second-hand from Austria seen at Gura Stevioara junction

Some of the small railcars remained in Austria and still work on both standard and narrow gauge. They are present on many Romanian narrow-gauge railways, like Brad, Moldovita and Abrud, at the latter we have photographed one like this hauling a train instead of the sadly broken down steam locomotive. The Austrian Steyrtalbahn also uses them to haul trains, especially at photo charters, so that a steam-hauled freight train does not have to have a passenger car, the paying photographers ride behind and in the draisine instead.

This junction is the start point of a last, rather short branch to Stevioara station.
