List of rail transit stations in the Greater Manila Area explained
The following is an alphabetical list of rail transit stations in the Greater Manila Area, which make up the region's rail network. The list includes existing and future Manila Light Rail Transit System (LRT), Manila Metro Rail Transit System (MRT) and Philippine National Railways (PNR) stations in the region.
Summary
There are 58 operational stations on the Greater Manila Area's rail network, with 33 from the LRT's two lines, 13 from the MRT's one line, and 12 from the PNR.[1] There were also previously 35 operational PNR stations, but operations were suspended to give way for the construction of the North–South Commuter Railway (NSCR).[2] [3] In the future, 88 new stations are under construction and are planned to be opened: 39 for the MRT, 13 for the LRT, and 36 for the PNR, bringing the total to 146 stations.
All stations, except for Antipolo and the 12 operational stations of the PNR, are situated within Metro Manila, with several future stations planned for the surrounding regions. Six stations serve as interchanges where commuters can switch lines. However, these stations are distinct structures from one another and are considered independently.
Stations often derive their names from the streets or localities they serve. Consequently, it is possible for two separate stations to have identical names even though they are not in proximity to each other. For instance, the PNR EDSA station is situated near the Magallanes Interchange, while the LRT EDSA station can be found on the intersection between Taft Avenue and EDSA.
