Join the Industrial Revolution!!! Gula Java 12, Gondang Baru, Central Java, Indonesia

It doesn't get much better than this unless you are one of the workers, that is. Gondang Baru was the most antiquated of Java's many sugar mills and much of the equipment shown was 100 years old, particularly the larger stationary steam engines. For another Java steam powered sugar mill with steam locomotives check out -    • Sweet Spot - Olean Sugar Mill, East Java, ...   If you think these guys have it tough then check out this video of a steam hammer at work in Howrah, India:    • Howrah Steam Hammer, West Bengal, India, 2008   This was filmed around 2006 and after some years of suspended operation, I believe it was officially closed around 2016 and is officially a museum although I have no recent information.
