San Fernando station is an under-construction elevated North–South Commuter Railway (NSCR) station located in San Fernando, Pampanga, Philippines.[1]
The station was part of the Philippine National Railways (PNR) North Main Line before its closure in the 1980s. It was also the site of a stopping place for Filipino and American prisoners of war during the Bataan Death March in 1942.[2][3] The old station, one of the few preserved, is a significant city landmark and now functions as a museum.
