MANILA — The Philippine National Railways (PNR) is on limited operations Wednesday morning due to the unpleasant weather caused by heavy monsoon rains.

In an advisory, the PNR said that an MSC train with scheduled trip at 9:37 a.m. bound for Alabang was already in service while an MSC train with a trip scheduled at 9:30 a.m. for Tutuban is also operational.

“One hour interval of train service will be implemented until 2 p.m. today,” according to the PNR.
