Tempat pemberhentian kereta yang ada di kota kudus tepatnya berada di Kelurahan Wergu Wetan, Kecamatan Kota, di banguan pada tahun 1895 beriringan dengan jalur Demak dan Juwana. Adanya jalur Kereta Api di Kudus di mulai dari perkembangan jalur utama yakni di Ambarawa Kabupaten Semarang. Pada tahun 1885 Pemerintah Belanda mendirikan perusahaan Semarang Joana Stroomtram Maatschappij (SJS), sebagai perluasan jalur transportasi modern di pulau jawa. Namun seiring dengan kemajuan zaman Kereta Api mulai terpinggirkan oleh transportasi lain yang dapat masuk hingga pelosok desa, hingga akhirnya beberapa jalur Kereta Api harus di tutup, salah satunya Stasiun Kereta Api Wergu Wetan.

  • Gramophone Records and Radio in the Late Colonial Era, 1903-1942
    Music and media in the Dutch East Indies: Gramophone records and radio in the late colonial era, 1903-1942 Philip Bradford Yampolsky A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee: Philip D. Schuyler, Chair Ter Ellingson Laurie J. Sears Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Music © 2013 Philip Bradford Yampolsky University of Washington Abstract Music and media in the Dutch East Indies: Gramophone records and radio in the late colonial era, 1903-1942 Philip Bradford Yampolsky Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Associate Professor Emeritus Philip D. Schuyler Music This dissertation is intended as an ethnomusicological contribution to the history of music and media in Indonesia. It deals with topics and resources that have never been systematically examined for this region: gramophone records and radio broadcasting from the years before World War II, the last years of Dutch colonial control. The gramophone records are our only documentation of the sound of Indonesian music in the years before World War II. This dissertation tries to identify (and to some extent provide) the information one needs in order to understand the records and, by extension, stylistic trends during the pre-war period. Ultimately it is meant as an argument for the importance of making use of historical recordings and discography in ethnomusicology. The use of gramophone records from before World War II (“78s”) in musicology and ethnomusicology is growing. Robert

  • Chapter 3 Overview of Each Transport Sector in Central Java Region
    Chapter 3 Overview of Each Transport Sector in Central Java Region Chapter 3 Overview of Each Transport Sector in Central Java Region Information and data on the current conditions of each transport sector such as road, bus passenger transport, railway, air transport, and sea port and dry port in and around the Central Java region were collected and reviewed. 3.1 Road Sector As shown in Table 3.1.1, total length of the roads in Indonesia as of 2005 is over 390,000 km, around 80% of which belong to the regions called Kabupaten/Kota. Mode shares of the road are around 90% in passenger transport and 50% in freight transport. Major cities in Java, Sumatra, Sulawesi, and Bali islands have been interconnected by trunk roads. Moreover, construction of additional toll roads invested by the private sector is in progress, and the total toll roads length has exceeded 600 km. On the other hand, problems such as chronic traffic congestion in urban areas and significant amount of road damages in the regional-level roads have occurred. Enhancements of road maintenance and management capacity of local governments are issues in the decentralized governmental system. The five-year National Development Plan emphasizes improvement of transportation services on the urban trunk roads, maintenance and management of the rural roads, utilization of private funds through public-private partnership (PPP), and so on for smoother transportation and enhancement of the road network. 3 - 1 The Study on Development of Regional Railway System of Central Java Region Final
