Almost 50 years after my dad quit his job at the Romanian Rail Road company, and 20 years since he passed away, I stand near the old locomotives in Sibiu thinking of him. Did he ever travel in one of these trains? How I wish he was here, telling stories from his old days traveling throughout Romania, perhaps remembering some funny stories from his days as a young engineer in the C.F.R.
I miss you, dad, I wish you could see me taking pictures of these old but not forgotten beauties. You were always my lighthouse, you still are and will always be.
