Romania developed a high-speed train, but could not train the rails: Romanian company Softronic developed its first high-speed train. The company, which manufactures engine, shock absorber springs and wheel discs in Switzerland due to the lack of suitable manufacturing facilities in Romania, made its first test drive from Craiova, the city where the factory is located, to the capital Bucharest.
The maximum speed of the train, which cost the company 5 million Euros, is 160 km / h. However, due to the old rail system of Romania, the high-speed train has to go at a speed of 20 km per hour in some places. It was stated that the train could not exceed 97 km / h in a trial in Romania.
However, the company focused on exports in the short term, not the domestic market.
