ESS 3200 class

The ESS 3200 was a class of electric locomotives built for the Staatsspoorwegen, the State Railway of Dutch East Indies (modern day Indonesia).

This electric locomotive class was first used on 6 April 1925, which also was the inauguration of the first electrified rail line in Java from Tanjung Priok to Meester Cornelis (modern day Jatinegara).

The locomotives of this class were in service until 1976. They were of the 1-Bo+Bo-1 wheel-type, used a 1,500 V DC overhead catenary, producing 765 kW. They were built by the Werkspoor using Baldwin equipment, and had / Westinghouse electric motors. Six locomotives were built for the line. Although the 1,500 V DC system was the most popular of the 1920s, Baldwin-Westinghouse were better known for their AC electric locomotives.

Preservation
After sitting idle for many years, one example (running number 3202) was restored to operational order and returned to the line where it used to ran for 50 years. It was returned to service and as of 2013, was hauling tourist trains in Jakarta. Although widely known as the number 3201, the original number 3201 locomotive was destroyed as result of 1968 Ratujaya train collision.

The ESS 3202 electric locomotive is currently stored at Manggarai rolling stock workshop.
