Berkeshire type locomotive number 142.008 in Sibiu Steam Locomotive Museum. The 142 series locomotives where manufactured in Romania after the Austrian 214 series project. The locos where designed to haul rapid passenger trains on long distances and in heavy traffic areas. Between 1937 and 1940, a total number of 79 units where built in the two major romanian locomotive building factories: Malaxa (36 units) and Resita (the rest). It was the fastest loco from CFR fleet. Ic could reach a speed of 140 km/h, although the plate indicated 110 km/h. 75 locomotives where scrapped so today there are left only 4 locos of this type (142.008 in Sibiu Depot, 142.072 in Resita Museum, 142.044 active in Arad Depot and 142.063 which was sold in Austria).
