Rejosari is the most remote of Madiun's mills
and has always had a delightful rural atmosphere. Even after the field lines
closed, there was a significant run for steam from the road yard, but alas from
2004 all cane has arrived directly to the mill and the amount of railway left is
minimal although steam remains active.

My first visit to Rejosari was on 5th August
1975, we left Madiun late in the afternoon and were lucky to see
Henschel Luttermöller #12 by the roadside. By the time we got to the
mill, the light had failed completely.

Rejosari kept its field lines well into the
1980s, consequently the smaller OK 0-4-2T were used to work the trains
from the road transfer yard, this is #4 waiting to go on 24th August 1984.

Everyone's favourite locomotive
here is the OK jackshaft 0-8-0T #10. On 24th August 1990 it was working
from the road transfer yard bearing a yellow livery which did not last
long.

|
OK Luttermöller 0-10-0 #11 had
inside frames and is seen near the same spot as #10 above but in yet
another new livery on 23rd August 1993.

The 'normal' OK 0-8-0T got very
little attention from visitors here. #7 was working the ash train in the
latest paint scheme on 14th July 1997.
