Hello good people on hive...
TMII has many unique features related to Indonesian history and culture. There are even houses of worship for all five recognized religions in Indonesia. There are also traditional houses from all 38 provinces. There are also numerous museums there, so many that I haven't even visited the one at TMII. But this one I want to show you could be part of a transportation museum.
Yup, while waiting for a train at one of the bus stops, I saw these two train wrecks in a green field. It was a sight that caught my attention for a moment. Since the train we were waiting for hadn't arrived yet, I decided to explore the display of the train wrecks.
Let's get it!
These two train wrecks are the remains of steam locomotives that have long been discontinued. Judging by their appearance, these steam locomotives were clearly operated before independence, perhaps around the 1980s or 1990s. These two steam locomotive wrecks are named C300 11 and C300 12. Let's take a look at the black one.
We can see the visuals of this black C300 11, which appears faded, and even rust is visible everywhere. The locomotive's wreckage is the head, missing the water and fuel storage compartment commonly known as the tender.

The body of the C300 11 is indeed sturdy and imposing when viewed from the front, with every angle truly visible in detail. The word I would like to describe the wreck of the C3100 11 locomotive is simply stunning.
Let's moving forward to the green one...
This green one is very unusual. I rarely see trains that are anything other than black or white, but this one is green. Emerald green? It's a striking green for a steam locomotive. But it's not bad either.
Like the C300 11, this green C300 12 locomotive also has faded paint and rust on some parts. However, compared to the previous locomotive, this one is in much better condition. I like the green one more than the black one, but the black one is looks like more antic.

Displaying this locomotive wreck is certainly a good way to attract visitors to a transportation museum. At the very least, they managed to attract my attention and let me approach the locomotive for a closer look. As I approached, I saw several other visitors who shared my interest: parents bringing their train-loving children.
After a brief visit to the black and green steam locomotive wreck, we continued our journey to see the traditional houses on the other side of TMII. These houses represent several traditional houses and places of worship from various recognized religions in Indonesia. I was very interested in seeing the temple there, but I was already feeling tired. This proves that visiting TMII isn't just a one-time experience. I'll have to go back again to see the museums and places of worship there.
Oh yeah, as for why we got tired so easily, it was probably because we were fasting. So our energy quickly dissipated. By the way…
Hasta La Vista...

Hi, Halo, Annyeong! Welcome to my galaxy.
I have so much imagination in my head. Something that I can't achieve as a human and as a girl. So writing is very challenging. Since Junior High School, I have written whatever I want to write. Without skill, I just write what I want to read. Now I have 12th published novels and all of those are romance.
Yeah, I proudly say that I am a passionate author, traveler wannabe, and blogger.
