Remarks: Although it has a mass of only 24 tons, the DMU has a heavy history. This type of DMU was built in Romania between 1930 and 1940 at the "Malaxa" rail vehicles factory. Although originally were equipped with Ganz engines of 120 hp, they were capable to reach 70-75 km/h, these units are now undergoing a process of modernization. It has 54 seats for passengers. Moreover, this type of railcar concept was based on old coaches plus motor and transmission. Documentary sources indicates that the Floreni - Dornisoara is almost 100 year`s old and is the second high altitudine (1032 meters above sea level) station from Romania.
