LIBMANAN STATION

Located down in the Bicol region of the Philippines, Libmanan is served by the twice daily 'Bicol Commuter Train (BCT)' from Naga to Sipocot.
  However, due to typhoon damage at the south end of the Libmanan bridge (bridge will appear in the next posting) just a few days before, services have been suspended until repairs can be affected.
Thankfully, the station building has thus far been able to avoid any modernisation and still looks nice and well cared for.

In the next part we shall look at the impressive bridge just south of the station.
We shall then move on to Naga.

Got Tickets On Yourself?

Yeah OK, I know I have been a little slack on the posting side of things just lately.
Haven't forgot the Tayuman/Tutban series - just a little busy totally rearranging the house and railway room.
Sadly ones asawa must be obeyed, which quite often does not leave much time for the all important hobby work to be done. Nose to the grind stone, less one wants sharp pains across ones botty caboose.

Anyway, in order to keep you enticed, below is a recent inductee into the famed halls of the 'Philippine Railways SIG' archive.

It is dated for June 16th, 1944 and appears to have been issued at Lapaz.
The traveler on the day was obviously headed for Sta Barbara. Can anyone tell me where on Panay this was?
