Mocăniță
thumb|right|Mocăniță on Valea Vaserului A Mocăniță () is a narrow-gauge railway in Romania, most notably in Maramureș, Transylvania, and Bukovina. Archetypically, they are situated in mountainous areas and the locomotives operating on them (which themselves can also be referred to as mocănițăs) are steam-powered. These railways were built for cargo and passenger service, but fell into disrepair over the years. Some are now being rehabilitated for the purposes of tourism.
