    The Wonogiri - Solo lines is the last of the inumerable "stoomtram" (steam tramway) lines which once blanketed the Javanese countryside, especially in central Java. These local lines used a mix of street, roadside and private rights of way to connect villages to the mainline railway. Alas road competition and lack of maintenance did most of these lines in, leaving only the Solo branch.

    Just a little information about this line : Purwosari-Wonogiri was built by local tramway named Solosche Tramweg Maatschappij as part of Solo-Baturetno line construction, they operated local tram using horse as locomotive. But since their horses were dead due to disease outbreak, they replaced horse with an steam locomotive. Not quite a long, this company was acquired by Nederlandsch-Indische Spoorweg (NIS) due to financial difficulties. After the Independence of Indonesia (around 1970s), the line between Wonogiri to Baturetno was demolished for the construction of Gajahmungkur dam. The rest of line still used today which described in your video.

    In Poland, there's a railbus route between Parczew and Lublin, operated by PESAs. These trains run via closest larger town to my mom's village (Sobolew, not the city in Masovian), Lubartów, using the line, which was closed in 2000 and reopened partially between 2014 and 2017, as between these years, there was only cargo traffic here. Also, in Czechia, the railbus routes are very common here, but Petr from Prague (owner of Pete Brandy channel) would say more about them, as these are served by class 870 railbuses or modernised RegioNovas.

    So this railbus surely can be used on the street in solo, as the drivers in that area have good behavior, but I can't say the same for most of our cities, as the driver behavior is not the same like the ones in solo, for me it's not recommended to build railbus on the street in other cities lol

    Great trip. Finally you upload this. Hope the upgrade in the future can increasing the operational speed, and can be compete with Local Intercity Buses running in same line. When you back to Indonesia again, I recommend Jenggala Train, running from Surabaya Kota to Sidoarjo via Mojokerto and Tulangan, but i prefer the Sidoarjo to Mojokerto route since it's more scenic (Notes: the schedule is very limited, choose the morning one to get best view). Or if you want bit anti mainstream, try the Dhoho Penataran train from Surabaya Kota to Surabaya Kota again (yes, this route is like Loop line), the sister train is Penataran Dhoho which on same route but different direction, Dhoho Penataran running west as far as Kertosono and then going south to Tulungagung and then going east to Blitar and Kepanjen and finally going north to Surabaya Kota via Malang. For Penataran Dhoho just reverse that Dhoho Penataran route. Hope you also try some Intercity buses and some Ferry running in my country.

    looks like a good train. it gets all the major boxes cheecked. on time, seems to be reliable and it is reasonably priced for the local population to use.
    and the interior might not win design awards but it seems to be sturdy and low maintenance. I guess, the quality of the rails prevent the train from going faster, aswell as the higher fuel consumption at a higher speed (which would mean higher maintenance and higher operational costs).

    1. KAI Panoramic (I think the best route is Jakarta to Bandung)
    2. Lrt Jabodebek (this lrt passes through the longest curved concrete bridge)
    3. Ambarawa train museum (there you can ride the steam / diesel tourist train depending on the schedule)
    4. Subsidized economy train (you will ride the most expensive train/compartment, it will be interesting to compare with the cheapest economy train available)

    Take the jakarta-bandung regular train service of any types and you'll see the most scenic train route in Indonesia. It's even going through the highest train bridge in Indonesia (300m) called cisomang bridge and the oldest train bridge in this country (build in 1906) called cikubang bridge. All at one route. You'll go pass deep valleys, mountains, hills, ricefields, etc. It is worth every penny you spend. My recommendation, take the panoramic class, it'll give you full experience.
