Buna ziua!
After visiting Chișinău, I had no ideas about what train would bring me back to Romania, and when I saw this train pulling up in the station, I thought this train was modern and was built recently... but no! It was designed back in the days.... come along with me on this Moldovan adventure onboard the D1M!

Hey, ho! Let's go! Folklore and rock-n-roll! Pleacă trenul, unde ești? CHIȘINĂU-BUCUREȘTI.....or I guess Iași in your case 😂. Iași is considered the cultural capital of Romania! Historically, Iași was once part of Moldavia, as it was the capital of the Principality of Moldavia from 1564 to 1859, and after that it was capital of the United Principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia from 1859 to 1862, and briefly the capital of Romania from 1916 to 1918. As you mentioned, the D1s were originally built in Hungary, by Ganz-MAVAG or Ganz Works. They were pioneers in their craft, not just in building rolling stock but revolutionized the milling industry! Ganz Works is known for helping create the world's first electrified main line in Italy! They commissioned Kálmán Kandó to develop induction motors and synchronous motors. In 1894, Kandó developed high-voltage three-phase AC motors and generators for electric locomotives. The first-ever electric rail vehicle manufactured by Ganz Works was a 6 HP pit locomotive with direct current traction system. They won the tender for electrification of the Valtellina Railway in Italy in 1897. Under the plans from Kálmán Kandó, three phase electric power at 3 kV and 15 Hz was fed through two upper wires and the rails. The electricity was produced in a dedicated power station and the system operated for thirty years from 1902. Italian railways were the first in the world to introduce electric traction for the entire length of a main line rather than just a short stretch, and the 106 km Valtellina line was opened in September 1902.

Moldova facts: Like the Romanian coat of arms, the Moldovan arms, adopted in 1990, features a dark golden eagle holding an Orthodox Christian cross in its beak. Instead of a sword, the eagle is holding an olive branch, symbolizing peace. The shield on the eagle's chest has a star, rose, crescent, and an Aurochs' head. The aurochs is an extinct species that's considered to be the wild ancestor of modern domestic cattle, and the star, rose, crescent and Aurochs's head comes from the flag and coat of arms of Moldavia. With its 300 days of sunshine per year, Moldova's climate is greatly suited to winemaking! Fossils of Vitis teutonica vines, found in the northern part of Moldova, date back between 6 to 25 million years ago, and grape seed imprints from 2,800 BC prove they were cultivated. Most of Moldova's commercial wine production is for export, 67 million bottles of wine are exported annually! Milestii Mici, the largest underground wine cellar in the world, is located in Moldova just 18 km from Chisinau. It stretches for 250 km, of which only 120 km are currently in use. During the 1917 Russian Revolution, Bessarabia briefly became an autonomous state within the Russian Republic. In February 1918, it declared independence and then integrated into Romania later that year following a vote of its assembly. The decision was disputed by Soviet Russia, which in 1924 established, within the Ukrainian SSR, a so-called Moldavian autonomous republic on partially Moldovan-inhabited territories to the east of Bessarabia (this land is know Transnistria). In 1940, as a consequence of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, Romania was compelled to cede Bessarabia and Northern Bukovina to the Soviet Union, leading to the creation of the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic, and Moldova declared independence in August 1991

Да, Д1 был рабочей лошадкой на многих не электрифицированных ветках железных дорог Советского Союза. Очень удачная конструкция поезда, плавный ход. Единственное неудобство - это деревянные лавки-сидения, особенно на дальних поездках. Но для советского человека это было привычно и нормально. Главное - романтика железнодорожных путешествий. Хорошо, что где-то этим поездам дали вторую жизнь, а ещё более примечательно, что и старые Д1 поддерживаются в рабочем состоянии и перевозят пассажиров.

@thefallen2811 3 ай бұрын

@@benbedothu Yes, they were built in the same factory as the D1s. However, the model name was C4 and they were named according to the cities they would serve and were specifically tailored according to city. "Catamarca" ones were made for metric gauge and had tourist and first class accommodations. But "Bariloche" ones were luxuriously appointed, so the cheapest class available was first class and they featured sleeping compartments, they were also made to use Indian gauge. Rosario ones never made it to Argentina as they were sent to the USSR in concept of war reparations, but they were made for medium distance services and thus, they had tourist class only. Ganz kept building DMUs for Argentina well into the 60s

In Poland, there's another heavily modernised train, the 14WE, which is a heavily modernised train, which was commonly nicknamed "Papal Train" due to it's route running between Kraków and Wadowice, the cities where John Paul II lived. And a fun fact is that these trains are, in fact, it isn't modernised, but rebuilt from scrapped EN57 trainsets, reusing bogies, equipments and some installations from them. Today, these trains are operated by SKM Warszawa, Koleje Śląskie and PolRegio, in a form of nine sets, four of which are now leased by Industrial Division. These trains have been successful since then, with their innovation results of them being 19WE, also produced for SKM, and Newag Impuls, which're in production since 2012.

I've just came back from Moldova, and I was surprised... they haul this D1M with an ChME3 from Chisinau to Ungheni, there the loco is being uncoupled and the D1M powerd on.. and driving on its last legs till Iasi. The reason i've heard is because of failure in the units, only 1 runs (barely) therefor hault with a loco for the most of his journey. I hope te'll fix the D1M's soon, great sets and perfect for the job in Moldova.

That way the travel time between the two cities is reduced thanks to the 160 kmh 100 mph Max speed.

They have only similar external design and interior, technically they are very different. In Ukrainian train use the new cars of Krukov's car manufactury. In Moldovian train to Bucharest use the old soviet cars, which were manufactured in DDR more then 30 years ago.
