===Indonesia=== [[file:DKA E10 (E 10 60 F).jpg|thumb|left|Decapod locomotive, numbered as E1060 by Japanese occupation. Currently operated by West Sumatra Division of [[Indonesian Railway Company]] in [[Sawahlunto]], West Sumatra.]] The ''Staatspoorwegen ter Sumatara's Westkust'' (SSS) built a railway line on the west coast of [[Sumatra]] from 1887 until 1896. This railway used to haul products from [[Ombilin]] coal mines to the port of Teluk Bayur in [[Padang, Indonesia|Padang]]. Severe terrain with 8% grades required a locomotive with great power. The [[Indonesian Railways Class E10|E10]] was a rack tank steam locomotive employed in [[West Sumatra]], of which 22 were built from 1921 to 1928 by [[Maschinenfabrik Esslingen|Esslingen]] in [[Germany]] and SLM ([[Swiss Locomotive and Machine Works|Schweizerische Lokomotiv-und Maschinenfabrik]]) in Switzerland. The E10 has four cylinders, with two cylinders dedicated to drive the rack gears. The class E10 eventually consisted of 39 locomotives, of which the last seven engines were built in 1967 by [[Nippon Sharyo]], the last steam locomotives to be built by that firm. The class was used in regular service until the mid-1980s.<ref>Kautzor, 2010 Continental Ry. Jrnl. #163</ref>
