List of Philippine Railways

Rail transportation in the Philippines is currently used mostly to transport passengers within Metro Manila and the nearby province of Laguna, as well as a commuter service in the Bicol Region. Freight transport services once operated in the country, but these services were halted. However, there are plans to restore old freight services and build new lines. From a peak of 1,100 kilometers (680 mi), the country currently has a railway footprint of 532.3 kilometers (330.8 mi), of which only 129 kilometers (80 mi) are operational as of 2021, including all the urban rail lines. World War II, natural calamities, underspending, and neglect have all contributed to the decline of the Philippine railway network.[4] The government is currently expanding the railway network up to 1,900 kilometers (1,200 mi) by 2022 through numerous projects.
