620 steam loco in Sibiu Museum.

The loco is part of a 84 pices series built between 1890 and 1893 by different German and 
Belgian companies. Due to their simple construction the locos where easy to sevice and they
where used to trail passenger and freight trains on the plain lines. They where taken out of
sevice only in 1960's. The 620 loco, named "Murgeni" was used on Moldavian lines till 1950, when
it was taken to Bucharest Marshalling Yasrd and then to Bucharest Depot. It was retired only in 
1971 and transfered to Bucharest Railway Museum. Now the loco is exhibited in Sibiu Steam Locos
Museum along with other important pieces.
