Spectacular stuff, hopefully more folks than just me enjoyed the pictures. Oh what a difference a few years make.
As I mentioned in a post over at trainorders.com, apparently some efforts have been made to perserve the incline and connecting railways. But the last updates were in 2002, so I can only assume not much preservation happened.
While waiting for you to finish posting, I quickly googled "siclau incline" and this was the most interesting website:
[www.internationalsteam.co.uk]
Bernd Seiler, our tour guide for Viseu, mentioned that when he started visiting Romania there were 21 forestry lines, all steam.
It's a good thing I always enjoyed my work, because it sure caused me to miss a lot of good railfaning stuff!
