PHILIPPIE RAILWAY HISTORICAL SOCIETY

Starting as the Philippine Railways SIG in 1999, the society set

up as a means to learn about the Philippines, share information and

connect people with a similar

interest.

The group is mostly internet based, though we did go through a

small period as an official group with the plan to help preserve rail-

way items in the Philippines. With mass scrapping of the majority ofrollingstock in 2010, the idea was set aside and we returned to our

original purpose.

Our magazine/guidebook Along Da Riles is the last link to these

days and has taken on a life of its own. It continues solely through

contributions by myself and a few significant other people who care.

Our internet activities are vast. We are regularly emailed with en-

quiries both historical and of a more general nature and we are

happy to help where possible.

We have numerous websites accessible

through:

http://philippine-railways.blogspot.com

We also have a number ofYahoogroup

forums for sharing information and meetingothers:

Look forward to meeting you on a forum soon!

RAILFAS GUIDE TO

THE PHILIPPIES

This guide is meant to share the latest information

with people around the world who share an interest

in Philippine railways.The intention is to occasionally grow the guide

and issue updated versions electronically, while a

smaller hard copy version will be sent to PNR

people, railway archives and other places with

similar interests.

HOW CA YOU HELP

Of course both this guide and our other

publications require corrections, updates and any

additional information.

All our society publications rely on the

generosity of people who willingly shareinformation, and even funds, to benefit others.

This publication will cover the latest information

on the Philippine railways, while others in planning

will cover the railways in a more historical content

PR

February 2011

PNR introduces a new dark blue with gold lining livery to its

locomotive fleet and on the front of its Phase 1 ROTEM cars.

The livery has been swiftly applied to most operational loco-

motives, even to the ones that had just recently been painted in

the Filtrack livery.

April 2011A ROTEM set collides with a Coca Cola truck in Manila,

causing significant damage and reports of a possible scrapping

of DMR-11 as a result.

June 2011

* Early June, word from a PNR employee says that the long

expected new rollingstock was two weeks away.

* Final test run of the Bicol Express to Naga is completed and

considered a success.

Legaspi reported to be open by years end.

July 2011

* The Bicol Express is relaunched , running overnight between

Manila and Legaspi on alternative days.

The initial train is delayed due to soil erosion damage to an em-bankment.

* The long disused ex-Japanese dining car (stored at Caloocan

Workshops since arrival) has had a lot of work carried out to it

at Caloocan and is being used on this new service.

* Bicol Express suspended in late July due to recent typhoon

damage in the Sipocot area. Recommencement expected in

September.

Bicol Commuter Train suspended due to major damage in the

Naga to Ligao section. No word on a reopening date, but it is

believed this will delay the reopening to Legaspi.

Yet another report on the second hand carriages coming from

Japan. The latest now says that they will arrive in August and

September.

Panay Railway

April 2011

The P16B project to be bid in May.

July 2011

* Government announces that the Panay Railway rebuild may

be shelved in favour of road improvements.

orthrail

Construction of thios project has halted while further evalua-

tions are carried out.

No word has been received on when, or indeed if, the project

is to proceed.

LRT

February 2011

* Two set collide during a shunting movement on the new

LRT1 north extension.

1G 1013-1014-1015 (1013 leading in the collision)

3G 1233 - 1234- 1235- 1236 (1236 leading in the collision)

Media later announces that the cause was a driver overspeeding

and talking on his mobile phone.

March 2011

Two passengers were injured during panic when an emergency

brake caused smoke to billow into a Light Rail Transit (LRT)

train when it broke down near UN Avenue StationAugust 2011

Test run from Balintawak to North Avenue is conducted. It is

reported that a few signalling issues need to be sorted before

services commence.

MRT

March 2011

The rear coach of a three car set detaches from an in service

set, bringing further attention to maintenance contractors.

April 2011

April 20th, set stalls at Buendia station due to a power fluctua-tion. People were helped to leave the train.

Metro Manila Development Authority

February 2011

Announce a tramway down EDSA as part of a larger plan to

improve Manila.

University of Philippines

July 2011

* Announces plans to test a monorail service around its campus

to help move people around.

* The announcement then leads to a flurry of other monorail

proposals to serve Makati and surrounding areasGiven monorail systems are usually quite slow, unable to

move great loads of passengers and are very inflexible, the an-

nouncement of their wide spread use has come as a surprise to

many.

Philippine Railway Heritage

April 2011

Local Authorities in San Fernando, Pampanga, announce a

P5M facelift for their local railway station.

May 2011

Surviving La Carlota locomotives were privately purchased

and moved to another island for preservation.August 2011

The society was approached by local people in Tarlac who plan

to restore the station for use as a local museum.

They require photos and information - if you can help, please

contact the PRHS.

Philippine Railway Hobby

* Two of the Philippine railfan hobbies greatest have left us

since our last publication. Bill Sullivan (PRHS Vice-President)

passed away in December, while researcher Graham Holt

passed away in June.

The hobby will be much the poorer for their loss.

* Talks are taking place with a view to possibly shipping mod-

elling equipment from overseas to the Philippines for railway

modellers there. The plan is to make purchasing second hand

and new rail model equipment easier for locals by sharing the

freight burden. Second hand equipment making modelling

more viable for the locals there.

PHILIPPINE NATIONAL RAILWAYSPASSENGER STOCK

Line closures and suspensions over the years has seen a huge reduction in the

amount of rollingstock needed.

Second hand rollingstock from Japan during the last decade saw an end to the

fascinating 7E cars built in Madras, while the arrival of DMUs from Korea in

2009, along with the promise of more second hand items from Japan lead to a

mass scrapping of many classes in 2009.

Despite efforts to preserve these important items, the last two years has seen

the extinction of the 7A (Original), 7E, 7SE and MCBP class.

NOTE: Not all classes are shown here. A small number of baggage and bag-

gage/power cars are excluded and may feature in future issues of this publica-

tion.

R-01 Santa Rosa Refurbishment (2009):

The sole example of what was to be a project to refurbish all the NR class

carriages from Japan. Famous bus builder Sta Rosa got the contract, but it did

not proceed beyond the prototype.

NR-01 now sees use on the renewed Bicol Express to Naga..

R Class:

Arriving second hand from Japan in 2004, these carriages were classified NR,

despite being identical to the 7A below, and were mostly used on services to

Bicol before this service was suspended in 2006.

Today some have seen upgrade work for use on the renewed Bicol Express.

7A/CAR Class:

Arriving in the 1990s, the 7A class is made up of former Japanese 12 and 14

class rollingstock. Having spent many years both on Metro Manila and Bicol

services, they have been largely replaced by the Korean DMUs.

One very worn out set runs the daily Binan service, while five that had a

small refurbishment done (CAR class) in Naga are usually used on the Bicol

Commuter service.

7BP: Baggage/Power vans for Bicol services.

PC 286

Former presidential car of Ferdinand Marcos. This historic piece remains

locked up at Caloocan, with nobody seemingly aware of where the key is lo-

cated. Officially it awaits repair on the PNR register as of 2010.

7C Class:

Nearly extinct class, the few remaining either used for works service or in

very bad condition.

CMC/CTC:Scrappings in 2010 saw the near extinction of these Japanese cars. A couple

remain in departmental use (Manila, Lucena, Naga), a few more laying around

Manila in various states of disrepair.

Sleepers:

Due:

A number of Phase 2 ROTEM cars were reported by PNR to be arriving in

2009. As of publishing there has been no further word.

Twice during 2011 reports of second hand carriages coming from Japan. As

of July 22nd neither lots had arrived. There also appears to be some uncer-

tainty as to whether they are DMU or EMU in type.

PHILIPPINE NATIONAL RAILWAYS

FREIGHT VEHICLES

Rail freight services in the Philippines are almost none existent since the cessation of the private container train from Laguna to

North Port.

The rollingstock on this page is used, if used at all, mostly for PNR operational and maintenance purposes.

NOTE: Not all types and variations are shown. These are the main types, but there are some variations in crew vehicles (Lucena

and example) and classifications across the system.

CLASS TYPE LAST

SEEN

NOTES

BC Box 2011 In 2007 there were officially 35 on the books, however their actual numbers seem to far

outweigh that. Today, although seeing little use, they can be found in yards over the whole

system. At leat two have been converted for crew use. Made in Japan.

A couple of this class have been converted for crew usage and are utilized on track mainte-

nance and breakdown duties.

GC Open 2011 These open wagons appear mostly used for ballast duties, while scrap has been noticed as

part of their loads during the clearing operations.

Some are named for the Hondagua Division (see map).

FL FHFSC

GC

Flat 2011 All near identical flat cars, these vehicles are numerous in numbers from Manila through toNaga. According to builders plates they were built in Japan, the reasons for the multitude of

different classes is unknown.

FL Open

With

handrails

2010 See above. Appear to be just a quick conversion of only a couple of the flat wagon types.

TC TF Fuel 2011 A handful of these tankers still exist, mostly within Tayuman yard, but also one very well

kept example in Naga. (2010). One in Tayuman was said to hold diesel for the

railcars and likely the locomotives.

All were built in the United States, giving them a very similar look to others of their type in

that country.

TW Water 2009 The sole WT, currently isolated in the disuse Calamba shed, was used for haulingwater.

FCD Caboose 2011 These interesting vans may look very American, but builders plates tell you they were built

in Japan. Underframes look virtually identical to the flat wagons above.

They can be found in major yards across the system
