Idagdag na rin yung mga pumipila sa priority lane na ‘di naman talaga dapat dun at kapag pinagsabihan ng guards ay nagagalit pa. Yun yung sa bandang harapan ng train approaching Recto Terminal Station. Tsaka eto pa, kapag galing kang Recto, madalas tahimik, pagdating sa Legarda, and iingay ng mga estudyante na sumasakay ng train akala mo walang bukas at deka-dekada sila hindi nagkita. Tapos sila pa yung sumasandal sa pintuan ng train . BTW, nag-update ata ng PA ang LRT2. I heard the announcement “This train is up to Araneta Center Cubao Terminal Station only. Ang tren na ito, ay hanggang sa Araneta Center Cubao Terminal Station lamang.” I don’t know if this is new or not. Probably dahil sa mga pasahero na hindi pa rin ata alam na hanggang Cubao lang muna.

I noticed this as well. This could be because most of the ridership are those working in offices.

dahil nasanay na rin wala rin mapapala kung sisingit... (ehem LRT-1)

Gumaganti kasi mga nasisingitan sa MRT-3.

Saka cina-call out talaga nila minsan. Lalo sa Ayala Spartan's station.

[alvingod]

Gawain ko rin yan. Tapos yun mga sumasalubong na papasok habang di kapa nakakalabas talagang binabangga ko. haha

Sobrang tagal naman ata irehabilitate yung mga escalator. Wala halos movement mukhang mauunahan pang maayos ng sirang rectifier

[Bruno14]

Sana nga sinamantala nila pagandahin yung stations at new escalators habang walang orperations yung tatlong istasyon.

Yorme Isko made an announcement that the Western extension of LRT2 to Divisoria will proceed. The Ayala Group will build the Grand Central Station at Tutuban.

Ayala na naman.. di pa nga nila maumpisahan yung LRT-1 section ng UGS tapos eto na naman. Ilan taon na naman kaya bago mabuo yan.

[AirRail781]

^ then DOTr needs to exert more pressure on them... or something.

[absinthe_888]

Curious lang, bakit si Yorme ang nag announce nito? Shouldn't this be the DOTr?

I vaguely remember Ayala bought Tutuban a few years back so it only makes sense that they build the "Grand Central Station" that will act as a bridge between PNR and LRT2 Tutuban Station. Might as well make them build that bridge so its a good walkway to get between two lines. Knowing Ayala they will bombard the passengers with a bazillion shops. But the bazillion shops will happen regardless given the culture of the area so might as well make it nice shops instead of the usual street vendors....

Yes. They bought Prime Orion the operator of Tutuban Center. I would like the likes of Power Plant Mall as their reference for Tutuban Grand station.

I realized that the Robinsons department store in tutuban had closed down already. are they beginning to start the demolition or this is not part of the awarded portion of PNR North Rail and Robinsons had just incurred losses?

I Think Ayala beefed its shares in prime Orion recently. controlling stake became bigger for them. im not seriously happy with their recent malls designs. hopefully, the could spare the middle building (im not sure if this is still part of the original tutuban station as the posts seems to sport 1900s designs) or just renovate it as it got more character than ayalas generic ones.

hopefully they could add a wider gap between the new LRT station and the old tutuban station so people can marvel at the Old Filipino Architecture.

From what portion ba ang original station starting from recto area. Hindi lang yung national bookstore sa loob? Pati yung buong aisle sa loob? Hanggang ilalim ng foodcourt?

Pag chineck mo yung poste. Bakal. Ganda din ng design. Pati ba mga beams na exposed?

[Englehart]

yep hanap ka ng old pics nyan may mga nabawasan pa
