Few minutes after the morning fogs had disappeared, beautifully decorated 'Sulzer' 62 1095 with only one carriage left Leordina as local passenger train № 4652 (Sighetu Marmației - Vișeu de Jos). Probably there are last two months of those locomotives at this wonderful line...

The second week of our stay în România was focused around Maramureș, a county in Northern Transilvania, offering numerous easily conquerable mountain peaks with an elevation above 2000 meters above sea level. Due to the weather conditions, our hiking trips were suspended for the first few days, which meant we could spend some time on chasing the local trains.
The backbone of local passenger traffic throughout the valley of the river Vișeu/Visó/Wischau is the railway line Valea Vișeului–Borșa (numbered 409.), hosting the regional and long distance trains between Sighetu Marmației and Beclean (with extensions to Cluj Napoca and București). Those trains enter the line in Vișeu de Jos and head towards Valea Vișeului from there.
One of those trains is the 4655 Vișeu de Jos - Sighetu Marmației, as the only one running in the midday. After heavy rainfall we came up with an idea to photograph the train with the Vișeu river, which had a way higher level than usual. In the constantly ongoing midday drizzle we decided to photograph 60-1356 heading the 4655 right before a stop at Vișeu Bistra.
One thing very much worth pointing out on this spot - notice the hanging telephone wire "segregators", clutching at straws so as not to fall in the rapid flow of the river! I have never seen anything like this before myself and it was a really big surprise, aswell as a fun fact.

Going towards the mountain you can see in the background - called "Medenica" - I found this lovely small orthodox church in the middle of a snowy galaxy... Wonderful and peaceful place.
