The majority of Indonesia's railways are on Java, used for both passenger and freight transport. There are three noncontinuous railway networks in Sumatra (Aceh and North Sumatra; West Sumatra; South Sumatra and Lampung) with two new networks is being developed in Kalimantan and Sulawesi. Indonesia has finalized its plan for a national railway network recently. According to the plan, 3,200 km of train tracks that will criss-cross the islands of Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, and Sulawesi, it has been touted as the most extensive railway project in Indonesia since its independence from the Dutch in 1945.
Urban railway exist in form of commuter rail in Jakarta, Bandung, and Surabaya. New mass rapid transit and light rail transit system are currently under construction in Jakarta and Palembang.
Indonesia's rail gauge is (3 ft 6 in), although (4 ft 8 1⁄2 in) and (2 ft 5 1⁄2 in) lines previously existed. Newer constructions in Aceh, Kalimantan, and Sulawesi are using the 1٬435 mm gauge. Most of the Jakarta metropolitan area is electrified at 1500 V DC overhead.
Indonesia's railways are operated by the state-owned PT Kereta Api, its commuter subsidiary, the Kereta Commuter Indonesia, and the airport rail link subsidiary, the Railink. The infrastructure is state-owned, and companies pay a fee for using the railways.
Various narrow gauge industrial tramways operate in Java and Sumatra, serving the sugarcane and oil palm industries.
History
The first railway line in Indonesia opened in 1867. The railways were gradually expanded by both the state and private companies.
The Japanese occupation and the Indonesian War of Independence left Indonesia's railways in a poor condition. A batch of 100 steam locomotives were ordered in 1950, and dieselisation started in 1953. By the 1980s most mainline services had been dieselised. Electric multiple units were obtained from Japan beginning in the 1970s, replacing 60-year-old electric locomotives.
Since the independence era, all mainline railways in Indonesia have been managed by the state. The owners of the private railway were compensated first, but the system was fully nationalised in 1971.

Plans to connect up and fix these isolated lines are included in the Trans-Sumatra Railway plan. Railway services in Sumatra by operational is divided into three regional divisions, which are:
| القسم الإقليمي 1 (شمال سومطرة وآتشيه) |
القسم الإقليمي 2 (غرب سومطرة) |
القسم الإقليمي 3 (جنوب سومطرة ولامپوڠ) |

Railways on Kalimantan
In 2010, Kalimantan is to get a 122 km long 1٬435 mm (4 ft 8 1⁄2 in) standard gauge railway for the transport of coal between the Maura Wahau mine and the port of Bengalon.

Urban rail and rail-based rapid transit
Greater Jakarta
KRL Jabodetabek is the only operational urban rail network in Indonesia. Two MRT networks, some LRT networks, and an airport rail link are being developed to support the public transport network in Greater Jakarta.
High-speed rail
In recent decades, Javan transportation backbones — north coast road and railway system that serves Jakarta-Surabaya corridor, has suffered greatly from both freight and passenger congestion. The plan to build a high-speed railway system in Java has been around for many years. However, it was not until 2008 that the idea had been contemplated seriously. It was Japan International Cooperation Agency's proposal that initiated the idea to build high-speed rail for the Indonesian island of Java, linking up the densely populated corridor from the capital Jakarta to Surabaya city (covering 730 km) in East Java. Japan is eager to export their Shinkansen high-speed rail technology abroad. Following up JICA's initial study in 2012, the detailed feasibility study was concluded in 2014. In recent years, Indonesia has been undergoing a revival in railway expansion and upgrades. The high-speed rail corridors have been proposed but not implemented yet, since it was deemed too costly.
The proposed high-speed rail will connect the nation's capital Jakarta with Bandung city in neighboring West Java province, covering a distance of 150 kilometers, and is also expected to expand further, connecting to Indonesia's second largest city, Surabaya in East Java. The project is scheduled to commence in late 2015, and is expected to open its operations to public by 2019.
