KAI's back
Locals walking along the rail line make way for Kereta Api Indonesia (KAI) GE U15B Locomotive BB2037805, as it crosses over the Klambir Lima river/creek into the boundries of Greater Medan, on U75 passenger train from Binjai to Medan.
Interestingly, there are plans to build an elevated railway the full 21km length of the line. Similar to the Kuala Namu airport line, with a bold vision for extra stations and a "15-30 minute interval" between trains, beating the only 10 daily services between Medan and Binjai. However, progress seems a little stalled, with only a small portion of viaduct actually visibly under construction near Central Medan.
