PNR South Commuter

"Simulating a tropical rainy scene for our Philippine National Railway PNR station model design with the proposed HET transport system."


"Architectural concept of a greener station for the proposed rehabilitation of the PNR railway systems running on 100% Philippine-made Hybrid Electric train or HET from DOST and MIRDC."

The Metro Commuter Line will be reconstructed as an electrified standard-gauge full double-track line with elevated, at-grade, and depressed sections, and will serve Los BaƱos.

In order to ensure seamless interoperability for the entire Philippine railway network, ETCS signaling standards have been adopted for PNR South Commuter and for all railway projects integrated with the network.

On September 12, 2017, the National Economic and Development Authority approved the construction of the newer line, as part of the longer Long-haul Railway that will connect to Legazpi City and Matnog, and Batangas City.

Funding for the project, which costs ₱131 billion, is provided by the Japan International Cooperation Agency, and is expected to serve 300,000 passengers a day at its initial year of operation.
