Bakrie Sumatera Plantations

Bakrie Sumatera Plantations manages an estimated one hundred thousand hectares of rubber and palm oil plantations,[1] a railroad for transporting rubber, and several land banks.

[3] In the late 1910s, the company was acquired by United States Rubber Plantation Inc., Sumatra, a subsidiary of United States Rubber Company (USRC).

The first locomotives delivered to the company were 0-6-0Ts, one from Vulcan Iron Works, two from Davenport and three from Orenstein and Koppel.

In the early 1950s, the company acquired ten Ruston Hornsby locomotives, its first powered by diesel engines.

Currently, the railway operates engines built by Ruston Hornsby, Schöma, and Diema.
