24102009_004_.jpg (108236 bytes)

Singurul tunel al liniei Campulung Muscel-Argesel. Se opreste la combinatul de ciment, desi initial continuarea a fost conceputa ca o alternativa la Bucuresti-Ploiesti-Brasov. Linia ar fi ajuns la Zarnesti-Rasnov dupa ce trecea muntii. Fotografiat de Vlaicu Andrei (vlaicua@xnet.ro) The only tunnel on the Campulung Muscel-Argesel line. It stops at the concrete factory, altough it was first planned to become an alternative to Bucuresti-Ploiesti-Brasov line. It would have reached Zarnesti-Rasnov after overpassing the mountains.

Foto_ferov_3.jpg (87160 bytes)

Tunel (unul din cele 14) de pe Magistrala 900 Bucuresti-Timisoara, situat pe linia ce urmareste Defileul Dunarii de la Portile de Fier (la aproximativ aceeasi altitudine: 300m), putin deasupra nivelului apei lacului de acumulare. Linia a fost reconstruita in periada 1960-1975, odata cu constructia barajului (Sistemului Hidroenergetic si de Navigatie) de la Portile de Fier, cand a fost ridicata cu ~30m, necesitandu-se constructia a mai multor tunele si ziduri de consolidare, precum si luarea unor masuri de aparare a malului. Tunelurile construite pe aceasta linie sunt unele dintre cele mai solide de pe intreaga magistrala; se poate observa folosirea traverselor din beton la traversarea tunelului, in majoritatea celorlalte tuneluri romanesti se folosesc inca traverse de lemn. Desemenea se pot observa zidurile de aparare care sprijina drumul european E70, situat deasupra, precum si contrafortii care sprijina tunelul, ce se intind pana in Dunare. La stanga terasamentului se pot observa ramasitele gardului de protectie care, in perioada comunista, era patrulat zi si noapte de graniceri, pentru a impiedica eventualele "elemente dizidente", care vroiau sa treaca Dunarea innot, pana pe malul sarbesc. De aceea au fost si accidentati unii soldati, care au fost surprinsi de tren. Dealungul liniei exista si astazi casute-santinela pentru patrtula granicereasca, dar sunt abandonate. Patrula Politiei de Frontiera exista si azi, aceasta observand granita, insa nu la aceeasi scara ca inainte. Totusi, mai sunt "temerari" care incearca si astazi sa treaca ilegal granita.

Tunnel (einer der 14) auf die Hauptstrecke Bukarest-Temeswar; der befindet sich auf die Eisenbahnlinie, die der Donauschlucht bem Eisernen Tor entlang geht (bei durchschnittlich der selben Höhe: 300m), ein wenig über dem Wasserpegel des Donaustausees. Die Linie wurde in die Zeitspanne 1960-1975 wiederaufgebaut, während der Bauarbeiten bei dem Staudamm und den DonauWasserkraftwerken (rumänisch-serbische Mitarbeit) beim Eisernen Tor. So wurde die Linie 30 m über dem alten Niveau aufgehebt, sodass man etliche Bergbahnbauarbeiten benötigt hat, wie z.B. Tunnels, Schutzwände u.ä. Die Tunnels auf dieser Strecke sind wie Festbauten und man kann auch sehen, dass man zur Durchquerung des Tunnels Betonneisenbahnschwellen verwendet hat, im Gegensatz zu den meisten anderen Tunnels der Rumanischen Eisenbahngesellschaft (CFR), wo Holzschwellen verwendet werden. Man kann auch die Schutzwände (die die E70 befestigen) und acuh die Kontrafortpfosten des Tunnels, die bis ins Wasser gehen, sehen. Links, sieht man die Überreste des Schutzzaunes, der in der Kommunistenzeit verhindern sollte, dass irgendwelche "reaktionäre, disidente Elemnte" die Donau nach Yugoslavien überschwimmten. Deshalb wurde er Tag und Nacht patruliert (deshalb passierten auch Zugunfälle mit dem Grenzpatroulie); es gibt noch heute mehrere Santinell-Kleinhäuser, die aber nicht mehr verwendet werden. Heute patruliert und beobachtet die Grenzpolizei die Grenze von der E70, aber nicht so streng wie vorher. Dennoch, gibt es Versuche zur ilegalen Übwerquerung der Grenze.

Line 219, Romania
C.F.R.
Entrance in the Gibei Tunnel, of Line 219 (Rm. Valcea - Valcele). On it it's written "Omul a invins natura" (Man defeated the nature). This is a big lie, since the nature destroyed the line after only a few months of service. Now the tunnels, viaducts, bridges and other elements are waiting for better days.

The rails were taken down in 2004, when they wanted to rebuild the line. Eventually the smaller parts were stolen and the rails are now stored near the former stations.

Tunnel entrance 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. 12 Jun 2003

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. 12 Jun 2003

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. Some of the tunnels are not concrete or brick paved, but bored directly in the rock as it can be seen here. 12 Jun 2003

Tunel_Oravita_Anina8.jpg (46313 bytes)

Tunnel entrance on the Oravita-Anina line.

This picture was taken from the rear of the train. This tunnel is right after the station of Garliste, going to Anina. This is the longest tunnel of the line. It can be clearly seen that the tunnel clearance is being widened, but half of the tunnel is still with a small clearance. But the new clearance is huge (comparaed to the other tunnels of this line), I think the line can be electrified with this tunnel clearance, even if it doesn't seem very realistic to talk about this line's electrification... First, it is isolated, the nearest electrifications are at Resita (some 120 Kms., with a direction change - Oravita) and at Timisoara (140 kms., with two direction changes - Berzovia, Oravita). Second, I can hardly imagine an 84 ton class 43/44 Bo-Bo electric working on some 100 m radius curves on 40 kg/m lines...Not to talk about 126 ton class 40/41 Co-Co's... 12 Jun 2003
