Steam in Romania, 2016 - CFF Viseu de Sus Part 1

The CFF Viseu de Sus forestry railway runs along the beautiful Vaser Valley in the Carpathian mountains in the north of Romania. This 760mm gauge line was probably the last of its kind in the world to regularly use steam power. The steam locomotives are now kept serviceable for tourist trains and charters for railway enthusiasts. My autumn visit to this line was mostly overcast and wet We hoped for snow and sunshine for this winter visit but again there was more rain!
The trip was again organised by FarRail Tours. February 2016.

Superb footage. Wonderfully shot in B&W adding to the old European charm and atmosphere. Your composition in every shot is great.

Úžasná krása z pohledu pozorovatele, která se z pochopitelných důvodů dochovala..Děkuji.

Brilliant. Loved the exhaust at 08.00 forming a perfect replica of the rail line's curve! Also the forwarder splashing through the river - corrrr..

blackthorne57. .. I liked the fact the film started off in B&W - very 'moody' I thought and of course your usual superb photography made it very striking. The swirling steam with figures (and loco's) appearing, then disappearing it was like a moving painting. If that's what you were trying to portray you captured it magnificently and as for that curve where the steam "mirrored" the track - excellent. In the yard I was just waiting for a glimpse of a few Bats and perhaps Dracula briefly, - but of course both only come out at night.
