CFR Călători received three Alstom Coradia Stream electric trains, but starting October 6, only one will operate, as a second train is withdrawn for technical reasons. These trains have been used on the Bucharest-Brașov and Bucharest-Constanța routes. Although CFR Călători was supposed to have 12 trains, deliveries have been delayed, with only seven trains produced so far. The Railway Reform Authority announces regular train deliveries in the coming years.
