This view is kindly provided by Peter Newett and shows Krebet Baru Mill No.3 in the Melbourne suburbs in August 2009.

 

This locomotive was purchased for private preservation from Krebet Baru Sugar Mill in Indonesia, where it was No.3. It was imported to Australia in 1987 (together with No.11) and moved to suburban Bayswater, Melbourne in 1989, where it kept company with Porter 0-6-0ST No.14P and two 0-4-0ST locos ex- Mt Morgan Mines. a

 

In October 2009 this locomotive was sold to another private owner, and has now been exported. b
