Sumberharjo Golden Phase, Central Java, Indonesia

98 year old D&B Sumberharjo 9 is returning 'home' and will go to Stoomtram Katwijk - Leiden in the Netherlands, in fact at the time this clip first appeared both this loco and Pesantern 214 were already in Singapore.
It features twice in this clip. One of my friends accurately described this mill as 'Slumberharjo' as apart from empties and the daily mud and ash trains, it was rare to see anything move outside the mill yard during the hours of daylight.
In the middle 1990s, the mill bizarrely repainted its locomotives from green to yellow but it didn't last long...
