The International Steam Pages


Jatibarang Sugar Mill
(600mm gauge)

The cane fields were mainly to the south-west and north-west of the mill although there was a connecting line to Pangka which presumably fell out of use when that mill closed its field lines. Road deliveries were made to the east of the mill and the field lines went out beyond this. Perhaps the most interesting railway feature was the 'half roundhouse' with a turntable. The mill benefited from receiving redundant modern diesels when Cepiring closed and this led to steam coming out of use well before this mill closed at the end of the 2017 season.
