Work started on 6 June and the line reopened on 7 July. This will enable UZ wagons carrying urgently needed grain to discharge directly at the port, rather than having to trans-ship to sg wagons en route.\n\nFrom 12 December 2021 trains on line 700 (Bucure\u0219ti Nord - Urziceni) have run via Chitila and P.Mac. R1 Buciumeni to Mogo\u0219oaia. The direct line from Mogo\u0219oaia to Bucure\u0219ti Nord is used only by trains to/from Aeroportul Interna\u021bional Henri Coand\u0103. It is intended to double track the long single line section between Mogo\u0219oaia and hm Pajura. \nAlso from this date the service from Ineu to Cermei was withdrawn.   \n\nWith effect from 12 December 2021 passenger trains Timi\u0219oara Nord - S\u00e2nandrei - Periam - Lovrin  have been taken over by  CFR after  CFR C\u0103l\u0103tori withdrew. Also on this date CFR started a service between Oravi\u021ba and Anina with a single train pair.  \n\nInformation from just before the December 2021 timetable change is that the following lines would close; CFR Calatori closures Caracal - Corabia, Santana - Brad and Regio Calatori closures Ineu - Cermei. However Santana to Brad survived into the 2021-22 timetable and a three train pair service resumed on 25 January 2022 between Corabia and Caracal.\n\nThe 'Friendship train' between Bucuresti and Chi\u0219in\u0103u (Moldova) stopped running in March 2020 due to the Covid pandemic. Trains started operation again in November 2021. \n\nOn 8 August 2021 the final 42 km of the Blaj to Praid branch was withdrawn, and trains now run only to B\u0103l\u0103u\u0219eri. \n\nOn 01 January 2021 Regio C\u0103l\u0103tori ceased to run passenger trains between Ineu and Brad, but CFR took over from 11 January 2021. \n\nIn February 2020 the Coronavirus crisis led to a considerable reduction in services, with at least one route amended to include previously non-passenger track. A two train pair service was introduced Cacica <=> C\u00e2mpulung Moldovenesc running direct Suceava Nord <=> Suceava Vest.\n\nThe new 2.95 km branch linking Aeroportul Interna\u021bional Henri Coand\u0103 to the Urziceni to Bucure\u0219ti Nord railway opened 13 December 2020.\n\nCFR C\u0103l\u0103tori gave up operations on the T\u00e2rgovi\u0219te to Pietro\u0219i\u021ba branch from 15 December 2019 after which only Transferoviar C\u0103l\u0103tori services ran, but only as far as Fieni. From 1 January 2021 it is expected that these will be extended to Pietro\u0219i\u021ba again. \n\nA new 3.2km deviation including a 780 m tunnel opened near Turda\u015f (east of Simeria) with traffic starting 29 October 2019\n\nChanges in the 2019-2020 Timetable\n* Table 923 Berzovia - Oravi\u021ba has lost its service again leaving Oravi\u021ba - Anina isolated.\n* Table 315 Holod - Va\u0219c\u0103u runs until 31 December 2019 \n* Table 316 Ciumeghiu - Holod runs until 31 December 2019 \n* Table 406 Bistri\u021ba Nord - Bistri\u021ba B\u00e2rg\u0103ului was rumoured for closure but the printed and on-line timetable is for the full 2019-2020 period.\n* Table 908 Ro\u0219iori Nord - Turnu M\u0103gurele lost its service.

Last train 14 December 2019\n  \nTransferoviar C\u0103l\u0103tori S.R.L withdrew services from 907 Ro\u0219iori Nord - Coste\u015fti on 19 May 2019, having reopened it on 11 July 2017 after work to increase the speed limit. \n\nRegioTrans were advising 403 Brasov - Intorsura Buzaului was suspended \"until further notice\" but the line has not appeared in Timetables since 2017/18 and has had no service since a substantial River bridge collapsed at Budila on 30 June 2018.\n\nSoftrans withdrew their Craiova to Motru service from 1 April 2018 due to low passenger numbers\n\nHaving been reinstated from the start of the 2016/17 timetable, Slobozia Veche to Tandarei services were suspended from the start of the 2017/18 timetable, despite appearing in the paper timetable. They do not appear in the 2018-19 timetable.    \n\nBerzovia to Oravi\u021ba reopened on 1 October 2017 but closed later.\n\nTables E and 922: The service between Stamora Moravi\u021ba and Vr\u0161ac (Serbia) was withdrawn from 1 August 2017, thereby ending all passenger services between the two countries.\n\nThe branch line from Ilva Mica to Rodna Veche reopened 1 August 2017 but closed again 10 December 2017. \n\nFollowing the collapse of Regiotrans a number of lines lost their service. Some have been reinstated, others taken over by CFR. Yet others have closed subsequently. The following lines have no service in the 2016/17 timetable and can be considered closed. 205 B\u0103beni - Alunu, 309 Oradea - B\u0103ile Felix, 313 Nadab - Graniceri, 417 Satu Mare - Bixad, 418 Rodna Veche - Ilva Mic\u0103, 510 F\u0103lticeni - Dolhasca, 512 Dorohoi - Leorda, 916a Buzia\u0219 - Jamu Mare, 920 Jebel - Leibling, 921 Jebel- Giera, 923 Berzovia - Oravi\u021ba, 924 Oravi\u021ba - Iam, 927 C\u0103rpini\u0219 - Ionel, 928 Jimbolia - Lovrin.  \n\nTanderei to Slobozia Veche has been reinstated again from the start of the 2016/17 timetable but Urziceni - F\u0103urei has closed with Bucure\u0219ti to Gala\u021bi through trains diverted via Ploie\u0219ti Sud and Buz\u0103u. \n\nIntroduction was announced for February 2017 of a frequent service over the western section of the Bucure\u015fti ring line between Bucure\u015fti Nord and Progresul. This would later be extended over the eastern section to Pantelimon on the main line to Constan\u021ba. The second phase of this project, after 2017, would link Preciziei and Berceni metro stations, although it is unclear what form this line would take. As yet this service has yet to commence. \n\nApproximately 10km of new line is to be built just west of Sighi\u015foara towards Dane\u015f on the Buchare\u015fti- Budapest main line to eliminate a speed restricting curved section. \n\nProbably from 1 July 2015 the direct route from Mogosoaia to Bucuresti was closed due to a problem with a bridge, and trains from/to Urziceni diverted via the former freight line connecting to the Ploie\u0219ti line and thence via Chitila to Bucuresti. It is possible that this is now considered to be the 'normal' route. \n\nThe following services ended  with the start of the 2014-2015 timetable\n309  Oradea - B\u0103ile Felix, 205 B\u0103beni- Alunu.   \n\nThe Service from Re\u0219i\u021ba Nord to Re\u0219i\u021ba Sud, closed since December 2012, reopened  14 December 2014.\n\nTwo pairs of local services between Craiova and Vidin in Bulgaria commenced on 10 May 2014 but were replaced by just a pair of Sofia - Budapest long distance services from the December 2014 timetable change operated by a BDZ Diesel loco to/from Golenti despite over the bridge being electrified. This was later withdrawn and replaced by a pair of CFR operated local services. The combined road/rail bridge  now named the \"New Europe Bridge\", was ceremonially opened to traffic on 14 June 2013.\n\nFrom 26 June 2013  services recommenced  on  513 Gura Humorului \u2013 D\u0103rm\u0103ne\u015fti, 515 Dorne\u015fti \u2013 Putna,  516 Dorni\u015foara \u2013 Floreni  and 604 Crasna \u2013 Hu\u015fi, several months after CFR decided it no longer wanted them. Fete\u015fti - Slobozia Veche closed on 21 June 2013. \n\nIn February 2013 it was reported that the 3km section from Baile Felix to  Cord\u0103u (at the end of the Oradea to Baile Felix line) had lost its service. \n\nReopening of the Oradea to Cheresig line (table 334) is expected in summer 2013, despite it already being in the CFR timetable.\n\n507 M\u0103r\u0103\u0219e\u0219ti - Panciu closed 2 Jan 2012\n  \nThe 2012-2013 timetable saw the following services withdrawn:\n603 B\u00e2rlad - F\u0103lciu Nord, 803 Medgidia - Negru Vod\u0103 and 902 Giurgiu \u2013 Gr\u0103di\u015ftea Hm (closed April 2013)\n\nIn recent years the following lines have closed:- 514 Vama - Modovita, 913 Golenti - Polana Mare.\n\nTable 917 (Caransebes to Bou\u0163ari Hm) closed at short notice from 31 December 2012. Table 513 (Suceava - D\u0103rm\u0103ne\u015fti - Cacica - Paltinoasa -[Gura Humorului]) has been re-instated after flood damage. Two return services were introduced between Cacica and P\u0103ltinoasa and Gura Humorului at some point in the summer of 2012, but do not appear in the 2012-2013 timetable. Table 603 (Barlad - Falciu Nord) was observed in Februray 2013 to have lost its service at an unknown date. Services were thought to have been withdrawn between Re\u015fi\u0163a Sud and Re\u015fi\u0163a Nord from 9 December 2012 as Re\u015fi\u0163a Sud is not shown in the CFR timetable book in either of tables 915 or 922a; however, the journey planner shows the existence of a train.\n \nTable 801 Bucuresti - Oltenita: Private Operator TFG took over from  March 2012 but only for Titan Sud to Oltenita, so the eastern section of the Bucuresti ring lost its one train pair a day from Bucuresti Obor to Titan Sud. The following lines lost their services at some point in the 2011-2012 timetable period: 302 Ploiesti Sud - Targoviste, 515 Dornesti - Putna, 516 Floreni - Dornisoara, 606 Crasna - Husi and 914 Strehaia - Motru.\n\nThe cross border line from F\u0103lciu Hm to Prut II (Moldova) was not in the 2011-2012 timetable. This service is believed to have operated Friday and weekends only for at least part of 2011. The Simeria avoiding line lost its two train pairs from the start of the 2011-2012 timetable.\n\nThe Ploie\u015fti Sud to Poiana Sl\u0103nic service ( table 306) was extended 10km to Sl\u0103nic from 21st June 2011.\n\nPassenger services on the Apahida avoiding line ended with the start of the 2010-2011 timetable. \n\nThe Oradea to Baile Felix branch re-opened in 2010  and was then extended by 3km  to Cord\u0103u, probably from 12th August 2010\n \nTable 513 [Suceava] \u2013 Darmane\u015fti \u2013 Cacica has re-opened after repair of flood damage. \nOn line 306 the final 10km from Poiana Sl\u0103nic to Sl\u0103nic re-opened on 21st June 2011 \nVama \u2013 Moldovita hcv  closed in 2010 after flood damage.\nThe following line has reopened 316 Holod - Va\u015fc\u0103u\nThe Simeria avoiding line lost its two train pairs from the start of the 2011-2012 timetable.\nThe border crossing at Kardam (BD\u017d) / Negru Vod\u0103 (CFR) carried passenger trains between 15 June and 9 August 2009 after some years of closure but there have been no trains in the timetable since then.\n\n==Special notes==\nNone.\n\n==See also==\n{{Navbox Romania}}\n[[Category:General Information]]"
