The Philippine National Railways (PNR) has officially resumed its operations on the Legazpi-Naga route, which had been suspended for three months due to train damage from weather incidents in 2024. Operations restarted on February 26 with initial services involving just two trips.

Miranda expressed gratitude to the Bicol residents for their support and emphasized that additional journeys would be planned as repairs to other trains are completed.

He remarked, “Our passengers can expect additional trips on this route in the coming months as we continue to provide faster, safer, and more affordable public transportation.”
