Uncommon card · No. 176457

On 27 April 2026, two trains collided at Bekasi Timur railway station in the city of Bekasi, West Java, Indonesia. The crash involved the Argo Bromo Anggrek, a long-distance express on the Gambir–Surabaya Pasarturi route as KA 4 service, and a KRL Commuterline local on the Kampung Bandan–Cikarang (Cikarang Loop Line) as PLB 5568A service. Commuterline train KA 5181B had a minor collision with a taxi at a level crossing near Bulak Kapal, thus blocking the line. While the EMU PLB 5568A was stopped due to this, the KA 4 train's heavy diesel locomotive crashed into the EMU. The rear carriage of the Commuterline EMU suffered the most damage; being a women-only car, sixteen women were killed. Ninety-one people in total were injured. The crash disrupted train operations on the Bekasi–Cikarang route.
