Nice to see that standard gauge locomotives of NIS starts to take its shape in Trainz, as many of Indonesian steam locomotives in Trainz are still dominated by 1067mm fleets.

hahahaha, as long as i enjoy the process, i have no doubts about what is gonna happen in the future
Trainzers who had their ancestors once worked in railway companies in Nederlands-Indies would be happy to see the steam locos of NIS, SS, SJS etc are resurrected in Trainz Simulator. :hehe:

PNKA DD 50 03 ex SS 1203
The SS 1200 aka DD 50 unit is actually just an imaginary numbering made during the world war 2 era, the Japanese occupation. This unit is original from the first batch of SS 1201-1208 series (if I'm not mistaken). the difference between the DD 50 and DD 51 is not that significant, only the difference in some component details (chimney, lamp cover, cowcatcher headlights, and tender model). The DD 50 is known to have not been seen crossing since the Dutch East Indies malaise crisis, the 1930s.
a screenshot idea if only the DD50 units weren't in the cage in the 1930s, early 1960s-1970s it might still be operational though its days are short.

Some additional information for those who haven't know the real problem faced by SS regarding the SS1200:
Early 8 units categorized as 1st batch of SS1200 locomotives were already considered as "obsolete" in late 1930s due to its unusually very high fuel consumption for such a bad technical performance, and even there were more technical problems that caused the 8 units to be permanently removed from service. Because of this, they were not included in the modification works intended for fixing technical problems suffered by the SS1200 locomotives (the modification itself only covers the later 12 units of 2nd batch that were renamed into DD51, and all of 1250 series subgroup that were renamed into DD52). In fact, the actual replacement locomotives for early 8 units of SS1200 (classified as DD50 by Japanese but merely for administration purposes) were the SS1600 (CC50), which had better performance than SS1200.
And I'm sure that Mr. Daveric's late grandfather was also facing this problem when he was still serving as the chief of Purwakarta Locomotive Depot back in 1920s.

Technically post-independence passenger coaches ordered in the DKA period and so on were built as 20m-bodied coaches (except for some types like CL-8500, which has shorter body and was intended for local trains), but because large portion of railway network in Indonesia is composed of ex-SS ones (including the SS-based regulations) it became clear why they were also numbered in 9000 series like those ordered by SS (before the introduction of 1986-style numbering system like KT-67701, KD3-87202, K3-66501, M1-84701, BP-95803 etc).
