CFF Viseu de Sus 764.221 "Măriuta"


As I already mentioned in my previous post, there are four small narrow gauge steam locomotives used on the Vaser Valley mocanita line on a daily basis: 764.421 "Elvetia", 764.211 "Mariuta", 764.408 "Cozia-1" and 763.193 "Krauss".


CFF Viseu de Sus 764.211 "Mariuta" is a 80 HP steam locomotive with a maximum speed of only 15 km/h. It was built a century ago, in 1910, by Orenstein & Koppel, but it still works. It has been in service at Viseu de Sus since 2005.
