A rare glimpse into Moncada’s architectural past, this archival photograph captures the town’s former railway station—a vital landmark of our local heritage that has since been lost to time. Once a bustling hub of commerce and connectivity in Tarlac, the station was eventually dismantled, with its former grounds now transitioned into a residential settlement. As one of the few known visual records of this structure, this image serves as a poignant reminder of the foundations upon which our modern community was built.
Also in photo, is a train ticket that represents a significant aspect of the Philippines’ history during the period of Japanese administration. It facilitates travel from Moncada, Tarlac to Manila, highlighting the connections between these locations during that era.
