Cikampek–Cirebon Prujakan railway

Begin Construction A proposal for a railway to Cirebon was submitted by the Bataviasche Oosterspoorweg Maatschappij (BOS) once the Jakarta–Karawang segment was completed. However, this proposal was rejected based on Decree No. 34 of 11 October 1883 issued by the Nederlandsche Handel-Maatschappij (NHM), which would have invested capital in the BOS. Considering the Cirebon Prujakan–Semarang Tawang railway as an important connection in the northern part of Java, the Staatsspoorwegen (SS) planned the construction of the Cikampek–Cirebon Prujakan connection. This decision was stipulated in the Law dated 14 June 1909 (Staatsblad No. 477), and was then put into operation on 3 June 1912. Even before its completion, funds had been allocated for the 19 km Jatibarang-Indramayu railway line; which was completed on 15 September 1912. On 1 November 1914, Semarang–Cheribon Stoomtram Maatschappij (SCS) railway line explored a partnership with SS to open a Semarang–Batavia round trip railway, in connection with the completion of the arrangement of Cirebon Prujakan. ==Double-track segment==

The dual track section of the Cikampek–Cirebon Prujakan section is financed by a Japanese loan through the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC) and the state budget amounting to IDR 115 billion. The first segment to be built was the Haurgeulis–Cirebon Prujakan segment, which began construction in 1995 and was completed as Haurgeulis–Telagasari on 8 January 1997. According to the Minister of Transportation Haryanto Dhanutirto, the double track section of the northern and central Java line was planned to be fully operational in 1997. However, the economic crisis that hit Indonesia and the reform movement caused this program to be delayed and the result was a double track with switches on the Haurgeulis–Telagasari segment and a double track no switches on the – segment only. Meanwhile, the second segment of this line, Cikampek–Haurgeulis, began construction with the laying of its first stone on 30 October 2001, by the then Minister of Transportation, Agum Gumelar. This double track was urgently needed considering that at that time the line could only accommodate 11 train services, but in reality its capacity reached 16 trains during peak hours. There is a note that the plan to build a double track by the Department of Transportation was 40 months of work, but in reality it was only completed in 30 months. On 4 December 2003, Megawati Soekarnoputri, the President of Indonesia at that time, inaugurated the Cikampek–Cirebon Prujakan double track during the 2003 Eid homecoming season. Next, in 2007, the double track on the Cikampek–Cirebon route was completely completed. ==Service==
