Borrowed Tracks (2024)

Hiram Na Riles

While the temporary suspension of the Philippine National Railways may be a challenge for local commuters, it offers a temporary reprieve for the railway trolley pushers in the Pandacan-Sta. Mesa area of Manila. However, as the railway is set to return in five years as a modernized and efficient transportation system, the question remains: will the lives of these traditional trolley pushers improve alongside this progress, or will their path to advancement be left to rust?
