Ceper Baru Sugar Factory Locomotives

The Ceper Baru Sugar Factory was located in the Ceper area of Klaten Regency, Central Java. According to local sources, the factory was established around 1863. It was one of the facilities that supported the expansion of the sugar industry on Java during the late nineteenth century under Dutch colonial rule. After Indonesian independence, the factory came under state control as part of the restructuring of the sugar industry. Production was suspended in 1997, and operations ceased entirely following the economic crisis of 1997–1998. The site subsequently remained unused for many years, although reports in 2025 indicated that plans were being considered to repurpose the land for public facilities.
