Caption - Jatiwangi Sugar Mill (Java, Indonesia) had a small 60 cm gauge system with two Vulcan Ironworks 0-6-0T's. No.1 was named "Kancil Manis" (VIW 3231/1917) and is seen in the mill yard in September 1982. The loco was fired with bagasse, a waste product from sugar refining. With a low calorific value, a large tender was needed to store the fuel.
