Welcome to the home page of the 'Philippine Railways Historical Society', which was set up to help and encourage fans of the Philippine railways. The PRHS main goal has been to research and share Philippine railway information, help others with a similar interest and answer the many questions from tourists heading there for a holiday.
-
My other interests lay in railways around the Australasian region (Australia, Fiji, South East Asia). For lots of information, forums and other items related to them, please check out LocoShed Australasia.

We are currently in the middle of a rebuild of the website which will be continuing through the first half of 2011. Plans are afoot for a section by section look at stations and infrastructure, latest heritage/preservation news section and updates on current rail operations and expansions.
Expect many changes as the society is placed through a transformation.

~~ RAILWAY FORUMS ~~
-

-


This forum is now in its eleventh year and membership continues to regularly grow.
Discussions revolve around current and historical topics, mainstream, light, industrial and other types of railway system used in the Philippines.
Sometimes, where relevant to a topic, discussions extend outside the country. This is usually to discuss a similar rollingstock type, or a piece of rollingstock that has moved on to another country.However topics normally remain within the Philippines and general banter seems to be not to the liking of most members.
SPAM and ABUSE is not tolerated by most members, who can be uptight at times. If you like to enjoy yourself, there are the options below.

    Wow, you immediately tracked my post on the dot! Maybe you should also feature those films they shot around and about the railways. I am going to feature people living in the railways soon and maybe the Daambakal group of Contreras. I'll try to link it back to this site. I didn't even know there is a site like this until you visited. Thanks Brad!
