Financial and operational issues in Romanian railways

Overview

The Romanian railway sector has faced significant financial and operational disruptions involving various entities. In late September, Transferoviar Călători resumed rail services, including 21 previously canceled trains, after settling outstanding debts with the national railway company, CFR SA.

By early October, financial tensions emerged involving CFR Călători, which reportedly owes approximately 121 million lei to SCRL Brașov, a locomotive repair company. This debt constitutes 99.18% of SCRL Brașov’s total receivables. The situation is noted for its complexity due to overlapping leadership, as several CFR Călători executives also serve on the SCRL Brașov Board of Directors.
