The ESS 3200, later the WH 200 (Werkspoor-Heemaf)[citation needed] was a class of electric locomotives built for the Staatsspoorwegen, the State Railway of Dutch East Indies (modern day Indonesia).

The ESS 3200s were first used on 6 April 1925, which also was the same day the first electrified railway line in Java from Tanjung Priok to Meester Cornelis (modern day Jatinegara) was opened.[1]
