1912: Line opened to Tiaong.
1913: Opened from Tiaong to Lucena
Tiaong is a railway station in the Province of Quezon (Philippines). While the station currently sees four services daily to San Pablo (soon to extend to Calamba) and Lucena, most of the station itself has been removed and current services are served by small stairs.
Timetable below.
This was my first visit to Tiaong, well, that's if you don't count screaming through in the rear of a Raymond Transportation bus being driven by a crazy man :-)
Alas, unlike other locations explored on the trip, there was very little left of Tiaong station. However, on the flip side, there was a lot more than in many other locations
