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.

Impressive Much.

While model trains are not new to the Philippines, I have long tried to push the idea of modelling the local railway scene, more so that the more commonly modelled prototype systems from elsewhere around the world.

In more recent times, there has been a move towards modelling the Philippine prototype, and some of the most amazing examples have been built by my friend Adrian Saldana.

Below is his work building a scale model of the new INKA locomotives and rollingstock.
The result is truly mind blowing.

While the Philippine prototype modelling hobby still has a long way to go, we have many ideas that may hopefully see fruition in the future.
If your interested in modelling Philippine transportation, and the areas it runs through, feel free to join us.

Great modelling work mate, you are a Philippine modelling inspiration.
