WMA_1024.jpg (63200 bytes)

Railway crane type EKD 80 in Sfintu Gheorghe freight station. The EDK 80 railway crane is capable of lifting load of up to 20 tons at a maximum radius of 12 meters. The crane weights 58 tons and is able to travel at speeds reaching up to 100 km/h. This crane type is used to lift various loads that don't require a high lifting force or a big working radius. The crane is also used in the various electrification works, where it's considered as the main part from a full intervention train. The picture shows a strange use for this crane. It was actually photographed in working position while loading some freight containers on standard railway platforms.

WMA_610.jpg (54839 bytes)

CFR type EDK 1000/2 rail crane in Constanta yard. EDK 1000 type cranes are used for heavy loads lifting. They have a lifting force of 125 tons and are used in rapid intervention trains. A full train consists of the crane and 7 other cars. There is a special 4-axeled platform car designed to carry the two counterweights and to support the boom and hook. Each counterweight has 26 tons and the total counterweight load is 58 tons. An unusual feature is that the crane and boom supporting car can both travel selfproppeled at speeds up to 6 km/h. To achieve this, the platform car has two special gearings (one on each bogie) coupled to an electric motor.
