I still have very good thoughts by idea so many people were interested in the history of the public transport in Jakarta (and also the rest of Indonesia). Highlights of the tour were the very nice preserved Bonbon and the visit to Tanjung Priok station. As the ESS 3201 was built in the Netherlands it was run as a prototype on 3-rail line (1067mm and 1435mm) in Hengelo, where it pulled standard gauge goods wagons: See www.geschiedenis.nl , HEEMAFfilm or www.holechistorie.nl There is also a large model of Bonbon in the HEIM-museum in Hengelo. Best wishes from the Netherlands and congratulations for the nice results with the preservation of Bonbon. This tour was very well organized.
