The inauguration of the Metro Rail Transit (MRT-2) or Megatren in line 2 with a total length of about 13.8 km and run from Santolan, Pasig City to Recto in Manila marked the comeback of the train as an important passenger mode of transport in the Philippines. Since then high speed train (HST) services have been introduced in ASEAN countries and are planned in many more, and the train has once more become the dominant mode of transport on many routes. This review summarizes the efficiency of the expanded rail network system which is quite modern through the application of technology and scientific principles by means of modern ways of transportation engineering for managing the facilities of MRT-2 system. The study further concludes that MRT-2 is less cost-efficient than private transportation, the benefits of MRT-2 such as aesthetics, providing transit for the poor, potential economic development spillovers, and reducing congestion and pollution—must all be considered in the cost-benefit analysis of MRT-2.
