Charges in the constitution of Romania relative to the adriiriistrative
territorial division of the country and the costposition of the
gaver nt were voted by the Grand National Aaaembly, and published
in the press on 1 April 1956. The transportation ministries now are;
Ministry of Railroads
Ministry of Road, Rater and Air Transports. (170)
Previously, the second of the two ministries was ' referred to as the
Ministry of Water and Air Transports. (2)
The subordination of industrial, narrowgauge, forest railroads is no
apparent from data on hand. In 1949, the Ministry of silviculture
was divided into a ministry of the same name, and the Ninistry of
Lumber Industry. (311) Later, the latter was ealled for seven,
years the Ministry of the Lumber, Paper, and Cellulose Industries (91
until in January 1956 It assumed its previous name (113). Logging
and sawmill units, known in 1952 as IPEIL (lumber production and prod-
oessingenterprises), have been subordinate& to it. (91) In 1953, to
1956, they probably were identleal with IP'RT, wh4ch likely mean

Highway Transports
In 195, automotive transportation increased 12 times over 1948 (Bod-

In the 1948-1955 period, the national-highway network was improved by
modernizing over 1,200 km of roads and constructing a total of 15,000
of bridges. Z .tbe other hand, only 15% of the nationad per: : '

The truck plant ("Steragul Ro$u" plant in Stalin] and the factories
cooperating with it will adopt up-to-date production methods in order
to manufacture trucks in large series, so that a production capacity
of at least 30,000 trucks, and of spare parts needed for the mairt~
tenance of the truck park (in operation) is achieved per annum.****
A. new type of diesel engine will be constructed and manufactured,
Tire production is to increase at a rate corresponding; to truck
manufacture, and carbon black production will. be doubled. (18)
The public [common-carrier] automotive transportation will increase it
park over 2 times, will attend to the efficient use of available
transport mans, and will establish an adequately organized repair
and maintenance network. (0heorghiu-Dej)
Public bus and trolleybus transportation (transit) will be extended
to 20 more cities, and the existing vehicle park will be enlarged by
about 1,200 buses about 500 streetcars and trailers, and about 200

Fig. 1 shows the Romanian railroad network a:. It exlated by 19)49.
The map indicates double-track lines as well as most of the trunk
lines completed or built in the postwar period, none of which actually
is a double track line, although at least the new, Bueure~ti-Videle-
Ro~iort de veue-Caracai-Craiova trunk line had been planned as double-
track and the roadbed had been built accordingly (310).
The second Five-Year Plan schedules doubling of track on the Vin ul
de Jos-Ilia, Podul OltiSibiu, and Razboieni..Apahida trunk lines 18).
This modest program concerns sectors which all are in the central
part of the countryo While past construction of new railroad linen
emphasized development of east-west connections with the exeeptior
of the south-north Pwnbe;t1"Livazeni coal-carrying sector, the planned
doubling of track concerns:
Enlarging the capacity of, the Vintul de Jos-Ilia sector, which
may be considered a link between two north-south routes, Ilia-
, Lugo]-Turnu Severin and Vin~ul de Jos-8.biu-Piatra Olt-Craiova;
the latter, in the -' .
Podul Olt-Sibiu sector, also to be strengthened by double
track;
Razboieni-Apahida was shown in the map of Fig. 1 as double
track, apparently erroneously.
An emigree source reported doubling of track on the Vinul de Jos-Ilia
sector already in 1953. (331) Information on this, and the RAzboieni
Apahida sector may be interpreted as meaning that the roadbeds had bee
widened for double track in the past, and that rails wil]. be laid and
way equipment installed in the 1956.1964 period.
Most important of the mentioned sectors is that from Vin~ul de Jos to
Ilia, as the classification yard in Simeria is on this route, from
which starts the line Mto Petroani largest steel producing kombinat
of Roaiania J , and a Mlle to Re i Ya (O elu Ro u steel works and Reia
steel kombinat]. The line from Deva to Pe~tera, whose capacity is to
be enlarged during the second Five-Year Plan period, starts a180 from
this sector.
The total railroad network apparently standard-gauge was reported as
10,230 km in May 1956 ('436, and as 7,363 miles in 1949 (441),
Replacement of conventional rails by welded rails in railroad trans-
portation was studied in the summer of 1956, at the Timi~oara
Scientific-Researeh Rase of the Acadeuy of Romania. The head of the
team, Engineer V. MICLO I, reported suocessful welding of streetcar

from Reni, composed of 224 cars. The train was disassembled in Dalai
Larga, the track width of the cars was changed into standard-gauge,
and sections dispatched to Hunedoara and Calan. Of 200,000 Soviet
cars which arrived in Galati Larga during an unspecified period of
time, 8th were 60 ton, and the remainder, 20 ton cars. (27) The uncle
statement of the source is interpreted as meaning that the cars had
60-ton and 20-ton load capacities, respectively, and that fully
loaded cars were used as the basis of the computation.
L a.an 1956 source, giving the photo of tank cars as shown in
FL , reported news in a fashion which leaves doubt as to its true
~a t.at, and therefore is translated here as literally as possible:
Beyond Dalai, near the Beni frontier point, a train section awaits
the proceed signal. The mechanics still do the last revisions. The
way is long. Beginning at Bucure~ti, it passes via Moskva, and ends
in Pekin. This route now is travelled by a train of tank cars, which
will bring the renown of craftsmanship of those in the "23 August
fl
Plant in Buoureti to faraway China. The photo shows the train of
tank cars at the frontier point. Soon, it will proceed o (28)
According to an official 1954 Romanian source, the Romanian State
Railroads are putting at the disposal of the USSR tank cars for liquid
petroleum products passing Romania in transit. (386)

The largest diesel-electric locomotive in 1956 in operation in Europe
wras in Romania, a 4,400 hp unit, supplied by Germany in 1938. (436)
Dieaelization of standard-gauge railroad traction, emphasized in
texts referring to the second Pave -Year Plan, was begun by manufacture
of a 120-hp, unspecified diesel locomotive in 23 August" Plant. (325)
Future supplies of diesel locomotives are anticipated from the Orman
Democratic Republic. (436)
Deputy Minister A. MQISI considers the performance of diesel-electric
locomotives 6 times, and their operational radius 4 braes that of
steam locomotives, while their fuel consumption is 5 times Mess
[in cosh than that of the steam engines. (46)
Romania holds the first place in Europe for operation of diesel
railcars and it is expected that the total will be increased to some
230 units by 1960. Railcars are being imported, mainly from Hungary
(436) , and manufactured in Romania by the t123 August" Plant (35$ .
Types of 2, standard-gauge, locomotives, and one, narrow-gauge loco-
motive, and of railroad ears, manufactured in Romania, are shown in
Fig. 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 43. Fig. 11 shows a narrow-gauge
steam locomotive, but manufacture of other type LD narrow-gauge
diesel locomotives, powered by a diesel KD~35 engine, was also
reported (318).
Welding of locomotive boilers began in 1956. (35, 218)
Manufacture of Ilrsad rolling stock developed considerably during
the several last years. Romanian make railroad cars run on the
networks of various European countries, and a substantial export of
cars to near and Far Eastern countries in 1956 was anticipated by
a communist gou__rce _ (435)
Among the new freight cars to be put into operation during the 1956-
1960 period, 350 to 400 are to be four-axle taak cars. (62

A research worker of the Institute of Scientific Research of the
Ministry of Railroads developed a special capsule of aluminum,
magnesium, and iron oxide, combined with other chemicals, whioh makes
soldering of aerial telegraph and telephone wires possible. The
hollow capsule, into which the ends of the broken wire are introduced,
is covered with an inflammable substance which heats it to 1,500?.
The ends of the wire melt and solder perfectly in a few seconds. (96)

Deputy Minister A. MOISI in 1956 stated that in order to attain a
50 to 55% increase of all freight traffic in 1960, the ra 1roads will
have to raise theirs 30 to 35%. (46) In 1955, he had stated that
over 80% of freight was carried by rail. In 1954, 60% more freight
had been carried than in 1949, and among others transports of coal
and petroleum products had increased; 1954 transportation targets
were met 101%, expressed in conventional net tons. Empty runs of
(freight?) cars were 26.5% less than in 1949. The system of calen-
dar-scheduled planning for transportation of less-than-carload goods
was introduced after 1953, and the transportation time of this type
of merchandise was shortened 50%. (82)
1
Mother 1955 source put 1954 rail transports of the prindpal industrial,
products such as petroleum and derivatives, coal, ores, rolled pro-
ducts, and construction materials, at 57% of the total, by weight,
while in 1938 these products consituted 34% of the total. The source
also puts all 1954 transports, expressed in ton/an, at 65' over 1950,
and reported that they exceeded 1955 goals as established in the Five-
Year Plan. Freight carried in 1954 by the railroads amounted to 80 of
total freight, by weight, (339)
MOISI feels that the anticipated mechanization of at least 40% of
loading and unloading operations by 1960 (of sand, stone, ballast,
quarry products, beetroots, potatoes, etc.) should produce time
savings which for a 20 workday period would amount to about 450,000
man/workdays. X46.)

Provisions on international railroad container transportation are
specified in annex 5 of the [East Bloc) Agreement on International
Freight Traffic (SMGS), new edition per 1 January 1956. Regulated is
the transport of commodities in railroad containers ,
(a) with a total weight of 2.5 t in transports with transfer
(b) with a 1 to 3 m3 volume; provided with rollers, in trans-
ports without transfer.
In Romania, railroad container transfer was permitted only in the
station, Bucuregti-Entrepozite, and Socola (~i) was listed as the
only Romanian frontier station permitted to transfer containers.
(420)
A Romanian economic journal considers planned yntr-oduction of
jdomesticl container traffic in railroad and automotive transport
operations of great advantage for less-than-carload Iota of
merchandise, and especially for agrloultural products. An average
of 250 to 350 lei per 1 ton of merchandise can be saved on wrapping
if railroad containers are used, so that for 500,000 t of goods
transported in containers in a yearly proportion, a total o 125 to
175 million lei could be economized. (339)

Such stations as Iasi, Oo~ti, Suceava, ac&u, Gal a1, Timi~oara
Crai ova, and Tirnaveni ( all Important from the viewpoint of freight
did not follow instructions that cars which had arrived loaded with
less-than-carload express merchardioe had to be returned after un.
loading to the Bucure ti-Marfuri station, where, as a result shortage
of cars for suoh transports was being felt.
A number of md.nistrie and industrial plants did not adhere to the
transportation plans they had worked out for themselves and then
submitted ( to the Railroads ] , and had cancelled a number of planned
transports only to request later, dur.~n~ the saw plan period, supply
of cars not scheduled in the plans. The enterprises of the Minitry
of Food Industry, for instance, cancelled about 18% of their trans-
portationwplan regrements, and then dispatched 309 of goods outside
plan schedule. Units of the ministry of Construction reversed 26%
of their plans and dispatched 15% of loads outside plan scheduled
While 1955 railroad transportation targets were 6.2% over thoae in
195, the structure of the [general) transportation plan became more
complex and demanding. NOISI felt that enterprises ought to be
indoctrinated that they hays to utilize available transport capacities
as much as possible in the first 6 no itha of the year and dispatch all
bulk gooda (stone, gravel, brick) during this period, so as to make
it possible for the Railroads to use available capacity in the
second half of the year for winter supplies and transportation of
st yields (grain) and products of the season (tubers, vegetablea].
Another example is that of the ni a station, from which limestone is
being dispatched to the (blast furnaces of the) Siderurgical Kombinat
in Hu edoara and the "victoria" steel works to Calano The Benue
limestone quarxy had made a contract, in force in 1956, for supply to
the two plants of 300 tons of limestone daily but with the aani a
station manement for supply of 200 freight cars daily (to load)
2,000 tons of limestone]. The quarry, however, Was not able to utili
even the ordered 200 ears and had to oanoel requests for about
1, 500 cars and pay, including penalties, over 80, 000 lei for thet.
Weather oonditicnz were unjustly blamed for the quarxy's miacacu-
lation, beaauae the weather had been ood in April 1956, that is
in the period when it happened. (212

Two cases of poor automotive transportation services were in 1956
news;

(a) The first is due to impro' er road maintenance. The Txr Jiu
b ace of the [ Crai ova ] I. R, T : A: In the sine r of 195 ; as pro-
v ed with 2 new buses for routes with a heavier traffic, but
inspite of this it was not in a position to insure satisfactory
services to passengerso The poor condition of the highways in
the Craiova province and more specifically in the Tirgu Jiu
county, maintenance of which is the responsibility of the
Craiova province,gu~Jiu county, and Baia-de-Arama county
councils, hampers smootb-t~erati.on. Buses break down, and
passengers have to a ;repair In bus stations or en route.
From May to July the rd, in the Bradiceni-Dumbrava sector re-
rnafned dug up and was not repaired, so that` the Ttrgu Jiu-Baia
de Arama passenger and freight lines had to be rerouted via
detours dozens of kilometers long. (248)
(b) I.R.T.A. of Timi3oara did not provide proper commuter services workers of the Re i a Steel Komb nat in 1956. The I.R.P.A.
base in Re~i~a quare e wish the om nat . Th.

special buses for the workers, claiming that the din
did not
provide it with proper information how many were needed, , while
the ~?mbinat ma. AgA~~?en ,,,,,, that evt complained vhat buses supplied were
insufficient, overcrowded beaauee boarded also by persona who
did not belong to p1a?personne1, and that timetables were not
adhered to, 80 that late arrivals caused the loss of over
50,000 wk hours to the Kombinat (probably for the period the
old contIrj,, ~in;e expired, was in force ) . The Kom~f.nat
grievances _ ncluded also poor maintenance of vehicles by I. R. T. A. 'the and neg1a ?by pia s my and oravi a county Councils to
keep rows in good repair, so that a cosunuter line for V 1i
residents could not even be opened because the road was unuBable.
A new transportation system itzposed by the State Arbitration in
1956 improved travel Biondi. tioYi)~i somewhat, so that late ceased and transportation costs to thekmbinat~were lower=v but
the parties continued quare1Ying as buses still were leaving
from Re~i a with 2 to 4 hour ctja's and took 2 to 4 hours to
cover 30 to iO-km distances. (254)

r ge, cross ng the ru r ver on the soviet-Romanian
border", was opened on 22 August 1956. The news was
datelined Vulkaneshty (Vulcane~ti] (398), which is a
place in Bessarabia, on a road following the Prut River
but at a certain distance from it. Vulcane ti is about
halfway between Reni (Qiurgiule ti) and Cahul [Kagul]
(374). Consequently, the source may have reported com-
pletion of a bridge near Reni tin Bessarabia), which is
east of Giurgiuleti (Bessarabia), or a bridge near Cahul
(Bessarabia , to which corresponds oancea on the Romanian
side. (70 oancea is the terminal of the Calai-oaneea

Larger barges had been built only exceptionally. The fact that
Danube vessels had been built in foreign shipyards and ordered by
private owners resulted in a diversity of types by shape, tonnage,
draft, construction material, and systems of propulsion. However, the
former Romanian State River Navigation Administration (NFR] had
folloied a certain line for towing barges, which were ordered serially
with "Upper Danube" vessels predominating, and for tugs, which were
adapted to speeifi,o navigation sectors, Maintenance and operation of
a fleet of towing and self-propelled transport vessels of various type
can (now] be in8ured only with much effort due to difficulties in the
procurement of spare and exchange parts. It is uneconomical due to
the old engines in use, which are characterized by low revolution
rates and a large conewnption of fuel and lubricants. Problems also
exist in the fulfillment of tug operational plans and in the transfer

the (navigation and engine room) personnel as work on ahips is now
being one in 2 and 3 shifts, the dimensions of the hatches on towing
barges which are too small, differences of height of the ships, and
the fact that stockpiling of spare parts [on board the ships, is
impossible.
in the view of the author it to necessary to limit steel towing ships
to a few types, corresponding to the Danube seotora and future or
existing canals. Only the Upper Danube towing barge shoal b
selected from the two typea now foaming the Rumanian river tranBpor'
tation fleet, as it can be operate; without difficulty in all 5 the
sectors and on the canals. New tankers [tank barge53 should be of
same type as those built previously. The problem of chosing proper
types of tugs is somewhat more difficult because of mechanical
adde equip
ment and propulsion machinery. Tugs with steam engines an p
wheels have the advantage of allowing overcharge of the engine, of a
good propulsion performance, reduced draft, and ample space in the
hull for accommodating the crew. Their disadvantages consist o t
heavy weight of the steam engine (about 50 kg per hp , large consump-
tion of ateani, small operational pressure of around atm and a low
revolution rate, and the large superstructure. The blade-wheel hgs
of the Romanian river fleet are being used in the difficult sectors of
the Danube, where the current is swift and the depth low. Their power
varies between 600 hp and 1,040 hp. $tea*-engine, screw-propelled tugs
have the advantage of allowing overcharge of the engine and their
smaller dimensions, they can be operated during floe drifts., and have

TBIC AGRS wITH RIPARIAN COt3NTRzES
After establishment of the Danube Commjasion (] 948], Romania had
concluded conventions with the Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, Hungary,
and Bulgaria, by which Danube transport conditions and tariffs were
unified, and which were followed by towing agreements, and agreements
on mutual assistance in case of shipwreck and on lease of vessela.
Relations in these matters with the entToned cotmtries are considered

Budapeat and Bratislava.
A short time before the beginning of M 1956, in order to develop
relations in Danube navigation matters with other Danube countries,
Romania concluded conventions almilar to those mentioned above With
Yugoslavia and Austria, and Romanian navigation agencies were to be
opened soon, in Beograd and Wien. (192)
B'AVIGATIOi~ CHANN MAxwT NANcR
Romania's share in keeping the Danube navigation channel in good order,
as stipulated in the international conventions on Danube navigation,
was removing some 80 shipwrecks from harbor areas and the channel.
(19~) A portion f these ships was repaired and put back into opera-
tion. .
Danube light signals along the navigation channel Cup to about 1955, 1
the postwar period) increased 899, and are to be doubled by 1964. The
rate of dredging the channel and harbor areas in 1955] attained
135% by volume as compared with 1948. (47)
An old stone dike below the water surface, located in the vicinity of
the Giurgiu harbor, and which endangered navigation so that the area
had been closed to shipping, was removed in the summer of 1956. (249)

5. Danube Ports and Cargo
In January 1957, in an artile describing the transportation network
in the Craiova province, it was reported that freight turnover in
the 5 Danube ports, Turnu Severin, Cetate, Calafat, Bechet, and
Corabia, had increased. (90)
According to Romanian information quoted in a Swiss source, Danubew
Delta shipping rates had been lowered as of 1 August 1955. (418)
The Romanian river fleet effected Danube transports of a considerable
volume for other countries, in the last several years; among them are
Czechoslovakia, and the German Federal Republic (West 0ernany1. The
1955 (river-to.-sea and sea-to..river) transit of co odities in the
M the AP. ~I 1 ? 1 ? 1. AN
Braila and Galati harbors exceeded X9511 transit volume by 2~.
(192)
Agreements between (West) German navigation companies and Romanian
Mvigation and forwarding organizations, concluded in June 1955, open
the Danube. to German shipping from Regensburg to Galati. Transship-
ment 4r\to rail) in Regensburg (including transshipment in
Paesat)# during the first half of 1955 comprised 2,000 tons of
commodities Imported from Romania. (415) , .
. .,,
At the time of reporting ft, December 1955, Austrian Danube shipping
did not yet participate in deliveries to the Soviet Union. Such
transports were still being effected by vessels of the East Block
countries. Austrian tank barges at around that time went regularly
to Romania andTiungary, but carried oily fue]. oil from these countries
to Linz. (22)
A new method of timber rafting on the Danube was reported in June 1956
The first large rafts, which carry several tiers of timber and have a
construction different from the usual rafts( were floated from the
river islets Casa Padurii and Vadin as far as Corabia. They are
easily manipulated, with no interference to regular river nav gation,
and each, serviced by 6 to 8 raftsmen can carry 100 to 150
m of
wood. In only few days, over 1)040 m~ of timber, floated on the
Danube, reached Corabia. (55)
