SS 1600 Class
The SS 1600 class, later reclassified as the CC50 class, is a articulated Mallet type steam locomotive previously operated by the ''Staatsspoorwegen'' (SS), the state-owned railway of Dutch East Indies, and later inherited by the Indonesian State Railway. The class was built by Werkspoor and the Swiss Locomotive and Machine Works (SLM). Background The ''Staatsspoorwegen'' had previously operated various Mallet locomotives to operate in the mountainous rail lines, such as the 0-4-4-2T SS 500 class (DKA BB10) and 2-6-6-0T SS 520 class (DKA CC10) tank engines and the various 2-8-8-0 tender engines. With the increasing traffic, the railway found out that they needed to double head the Mallet tank engines to pull heavier trains, while the 2-8-8-0s engines has a high axle load which makes them unsuitable for some railway lines. Thus, SS needed a more powerful locomotive with an axle load less than . To address the issue, the Technical Bureau of the ''Departement van Kolonien'' or ...

DKA CC50 (50 29 D)
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a potentially life-threatening acute complication of diabetes mellitus. Signs and symptoms may include vomiting, abdominal pain, deep gasping breathing, increased urination, weakness, confusion and occasionally loss of consciousness. A person's breath may develop a specific "fruity" or acetone smell. The onset of symptoms is usually rapid. People without a previous diagnosis of diabetes may develop DKA as the first obvious symptom. DKA happens most often in those with type 1 diabetes but can also occur in those with other types of diabetes under certain circumstances. Triggers may include infection, not taking insulin correctly, stroke and certain medications such as steroids. DKA results from a shortage of insulin; in response, the body switches to burning fatty acids, which produces acidic ketone bodies. DKA is typically diagnosed when testing finds high blood sugar, low blood pH and keto acids in either the blood or urine. The primary treatme ...

Oude Mallet Stoomlocomotief Door Indonesische Staatsspoorwegen Aangeboden Aan , Bestanddeelnr 931-6009
Awadh (), known in British Raj historical texts as Avadh or Oudh, is a historical region in northern India and southern Nepal, now constituting the North-central portion of Uttar Pradesh. It is roughly synonymous with the ancient Kosala Region of Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain scriptures. It was a province of all the major Islamic dynasties in India including the Mughal Empire. With the decline of late Mughal Delhi, Awadh became a major source of literary, artistic, religious, and architectural patronage in northern India under the rule of its eleven rulers, called Nawabs. From 1720 to 1856, the nawabs presided over Awadh, with Ayodhya and Faizabad serving as the region's initial capitals. Later, the capital was relocated to Lucknow, which is now the capital of Uttar Pradesh. The British conquered Awadh in 1856, which infuriated Indians and was recognised as a factor causing the Indian Rebellion (1857-58), the biggest Indian uprising against British rule.
