Overview of the StEG CFR 50.0
Discover the powerful CFR 50.0 steam locomotive, a testament to engineering prowess.
This impressive machine, a member of the Prussian G10 series, was constructed by StEG between 1919 and 1922.
It boasts a top speed of 60 km/h and operates on a 1435 mm gauge.
With its 0-10-0 Whyte notation and E' h2 UIC classification, it's a robust locomotive.
Weighing in at 77 tons, it was a true workhorse.
The CFR 50.0 represents a significant piece of Romanian railway heritage.
