PHILIPPINE NATIONAL RAILWAYS FLEET UPDATE - JULY 27TH 2021

 

We have compiled another fleet update a little sooner than would normally be the case.

There has been a few significant changes, the most notable being the transfer of 902 and 913 from DESCO Engineering to Caloocan Workshops for completion of their rebuilds.

914 and 916 have now been transferred to DESCO for rebuild commencement.

Our roving reported Mark Chua was on the scene for all these transfers, and these will be covered in upcoming posts.
