Manila Belt Line Railway Rehab

The rail rehabilitation of the Southrail started last Tuesday, March 4, 2008. The rehabilitation started near the historic Paco Railroad Station. The Manila belt line beside the Paco Railroad Station will celebrate its 100 years anniversary this coming March 25, 2008.


Finally, the contractors drained the stagnant water and provided new ballasts for the rails. The work above was done in just four days.
