Deli Railway Company
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
N.V. Deli Spoorweg Maatschappij (DSM, lit. 'Deli Railway Company plc'), was a private railway company that operated near the east coast of Sumatra around Deli (now Medan). The Deli Company established itself as a tobacco plantation and then expanded into tea, rubber and timber products. The company was founded in 1883. Routes were built in cape gauge (1,067 mm (3 ft 6 in)). It was the last remaining private Dutch railway when it was taken over by the Indonesian State Railways in 1957.
