Jakarta-Bogor trains

Jakarta-Bogor trains

From Neraca

The electric trains plying the Jakarta-Bogor route are now also indulging in the same bad practice as that of Metromini and Kopaja city minibuses, which dispose of their passengers at will and cut short their itineraries.

One day, I took the train to Bogor, but when it arrived at Depok Lama, all passengers had to disembark because the train had a breakdown. We had to wait for hours with no results, because all trains did not go farther than Depok Lama.

The incident is not occasional. I have often experienced this mishap. There are also trains which, upon arrival at smaller stations, are ordered to return to Jakarta. No explanation is ever given.

We appeal to the state railway company Perumka to revamp their management in order to serve the public in the proper way.
