Sumberharjo Arrival, Central Java, Indonesia

My own strike rate for daylight trains at Sumberharjo was extremely low and the best chance of seeing one seemed to be a late running overnight train as seen here by Ross Sadler in 1985 with D&B 0-8-0T 9 creeping in. The crew might have spent at least part of the night asleep on the bagasse on the tender except that most likely the mill was still using oil firing at the time.
