History

Societatea Feroviară de Turism "S.F.T. – C.F.R." SA provided tourist passenger transport services with vintage trains hauled by steam locomotives on various distances and itineraries in Romania. Its rolling stock included steam locomotives and carriages that had carried kings, presidents and diplomats across Europe. By a Bucharest Tribunal ruling of 28 January 2013 in case 47967/3/2012, the court admitted the debtor's request to open a general insolvency procedure under Article 32(1) of Law No. 85/2006 on insolvency procedure and noted the debtor's intention to reorganize its activity; an insolvency consortium of "GENERAL GROUP EXPERT SPRL and CIMPEANU, DEZSI, GHEORGHE SPRL" was appointed as judicial administrator. By a further ruling of 8 April 2013 in the same case, the court took note of the request by "GENERAL GROUP EXPERT" SPRL to renounce its mandate, with the provisional administrator's duties to be performed only by "CIMPEANU, DEZSI, GHEORGHE" SPRL. The company's website states it is in bankruptcy ("in faliment") and that SFT-CFR SA in bankruptcy rents vintage trains for filming and domestic trips.
