Welcome one and all to the 'Philippine Railway Historical Society' blogsite. This site was set up to share photos, historical pieces, comment and virtually anything else pertaining to transportation in the Philippines, with a special emphasis on rail. Occasional we vary from topic, but this is the less serious side of the hobby shining through - cause sometimes, in this miserable and uptight world, we just take ourselves a little too seriously.
Since 1999, the Philippine Railway Historical Society has regularly published items, FOR FREE, of railway interest on our PRHS Website. These include locomotive, rollingstock and transit updates, as well as our occasional magazine, 'Along Da Riles'.
Our interest base has grown over the years with our main Facebook railway group expanding to include groups interested in other Philippine Transport, modelling of Philippine transport and even a group for Philippine railfans interested in overseas railways.
If it sounds interesting, come join in the fun of the oldest, and most diverse, group dedicated to Philippine railways and other transport.
We look forward to meeting you.

If you have a question Philippine railway related, just drop us a line, maybe we can help.

Tayuman/Tutuban Photo Essay 2007 (Pt2)

*** Tayuman/Tutuban Photo Essay 2007 ***

Howdee,
In part two of this series we are looking at the area around the station and the west side of the locomotive facilities.
I am currently trying to locate the photos taken around the engine shed and the usual side of the facilities that the locomotives would be when making use of them. Have also to complete the aerial shot of the south end of the yard.

More soon.


The below two shots show the passenger waiting area of the now demolished Tayuman railway station.
The bottom of the two were taken during a visit by the SIG and show L-R Bill, Ceasar, Harvey, Nick (hidden) and Karel.


Not sure if it is possible to buy HO scale plastic figures of people as cute as your average Pinay.
If it is, please let us know :-)


Shot of Tayuman station from the south angle, plus a few of the locomotive facilities (west side) next to the station.
