Yogyakarta Station Steam Locomotive Monument in Yogyakarta, Indonesia
The Marshall Britannia steam monument in Yogyakarta is a significant historical display located at the east entrance of the Yogyakarta Railway Station (also known as Stasiun Tugu).
It is not a traditional railway locomotive, but rather a Marshall single-cylinder portable steam engine, a type typically used for running equipment in the sugar industry. This model was built by Marshall Sons & Co. Ltd. between the late 19th and mid-20th centuries.
The monument is now located at the north wing of the Stasiun Tugu entrance, just across from the end of Jalan Malioboro, which is the iconic main street and heart of the largest tourist and commercial district in Yogyakarta.
The station also features a D301 22 hydraulic diesel locomotive monument at its south entrance, underscoring the history of rail transport in the area.
