a real or fictitious Romanian electric multiple unit?


The postmark says something about 50 years of railway employees struggles.  

According to the lists on railfaneurope.net, while the 55 class designation was allocated for EMU sets, there has been only one, introduced in 1990 as a prototype and now withdrawn.  Some second-hand SNCF electric multiple units have been recently acquired.

The stamp illustration description says it is a 4000 hp diesel-electric set.
