List of locomotives in Indonesia

This is a list of locomotives in Indonesia and the former Netherlands East Indies.

In Greater Jakarta, steam locomotives were operated between the 1930s and 1980-1990s (e.g.: steam trams were actually closed in the early 1980s electricity was actually closed at the end of the decade 1990s due to being displaced by electric rail train, diesel locomotive, city transportation and the emergence of ojek motorcycle ).

The first locomotives in Indonesia were NIS 1 and 2 belonging to Nederlandsch-Indische Spoorweg Maatschappij, to serve the Samarang NIS-Tanggung railway line.

[8][9][10] Unlike steam locomotives operated by other railway operators in the former Dutch East Indies, DSM locomotives never received renumbering by the Japanese occupation authority, and thus retained their original number.
