Again we return to 2010 as the process of going through all the photos of that trip continues.
During this trip, the PRHS was lucky to have been granted permission to inspect the LRT2 depot in Santolan (Pasig, Metro Manila).
The inspection took us through the yard, workshop, and control room. It was a very interesting look behind the scenes of this busy elevated Manila railway.
This is the first of a two part series looking at this important location on the day of our visit.
The LRT2 opened from Santolan to Recto in 2003, the extended to Antipolo in 2001.

Thanks to the management of the LRT2 for allowing us a close look at the workings inside the workshops.

LRT2 Control Room
Probably one of the bigger highlights of the visit was being allowed the cover the control room.
Highly interesting to observe where the magic happens.
