History
The station was supposed to be built as a result of the Northrail project, a rebuilding of the line from Manila to Pampanga which would partly use the old right-of-way. The project commenced in 2007, construction has halted though as of 2011. The ill-governed project may continue after renegotiation, possibly in a changed way.
Revival
As of part of North-South Commuter Railway will be reconstructed of PNR North Phase 2.[2]
