Tunnel exit on the Oravita-Anina line.
This picture was taken from the rear of the train.
It can be noticed that the tunnel clerance is very small, enough though to allow coal wagons, that are most of the traffic on this line.
It can be seen over the tunnel the construction year in Latin numbers: MDCCCLXIII (1863). This was the first mountain line in the territory of the actual Romania; at that time the region was under Austrian rule.
