Blumentritt station (PNR)

Blumentritt station is a railway station located on the South Main Line in the city of Manila, Philippines. It is currently being repurposed as an elevated station of the under construction North–South Commuter Railway. It derives its name from nearby Blumentritt Road, which is named after the Bohemian professor Ferdinand Blumentritt, a friend of José Rizal and sympathizer of the Filipino cause.

History
(Malolos–Clark Railway Project). Blumentritt, then San Lazaro, was opened on December 22, 1905, as a station originally part of the Antipolo and Montalban lines; the Blumentritt-Santa Mesa segment of the current PNR Southrail was part of the defunct line but now it is being used for the PNR Metro South Commuter services. On March 28, 2024, station operations were temporarily suspended to make way for the construction of the North–South Commuter Railway. The station will be repurposed as an elevated station. ==Station layout==
