Introduce. this is Rama the CC200 08 :D (my OC)
Rama is the first type of Diesel locomotive owned and purchased by DKA (Djawatan Kereta Api) which is now PT.KAI, The CC200 was made in 1953 by General Electric in partnership with Alco.
This locomotive was made as many as 27 units and came in waves from 1953 to 1954.
And the special thing about this locomotive was that it was inaugurated directly by Indonesia's first president, Ir. Soekarno and also in 1955 this locomotive became the locomotive that attracted a series of high-level Asian-African Conferences.
but unfortunately these locomotives had to collapse massively since 1986, due to the arrival of new diesel locomotives and it was getting worse because of rare spare parts.
after they fell, it didn't take long for them to be crushed and stripped down, until finally only 4 units were still operational, namely CC200 08, 09, 15 and 26.
In November 1999 the CC200 26 locomotive was also Scrapyard because of miscommunication. Even though 26 themselves are the healthiest locomotives, until finally the remaining 3 units are still left
After that, 2 CC200 units also died because they were damaged, CC200 09 died because of its spare parts for 15 while CC200 08 fell because the cylinder was broken after being forced to pull JSO751 Argo Lawu ( Well 08 accident was make me Angry cuz He is Sick Idiot!! )
Until finally only CC200 15 was still alive and survived until possibly 2013 after finally dying too because of a broken cylinder too, and luckily 15 were preserved at the Ambarawa Railway Museum while their 2 siblings, CC200 08 and CC200 09, were dried in the sun at Yogyakarta Train Workshop
