Calamba station is a railway station located on the South Main Line in Laguna, Philippines. It is one of two railway stations in the city and it is a major station on the line, serving as the junction between the South Main Line and the old Calamba–Batangas branch line which used to connect to Batangas City. It is also envisioned to be the terminus of the Commuter Express when rehabilitation work is complete. The station was first opened on January 24, 1909. The existing PNR line from Calamba to Legazpi is conventional ballasted track, where parallel steel rails are laid upon sleepers embedded in ballast (except on open deck bridges). Embankment is either on fill or at grade. Rails weigh 37 kg/m and are laid on sleepers of both wood and concrete. From Calamba to Legazpi, most stations and flag stops have been used for non-railway purposes such as residences, storage areas or as public gathering areas. Most of these stations south of Calamba are in conditions insufficient for efficient and safe operations as a railway passenger station. From Calamba to Legazpi, the line is single-tracked and, similar to the Commuter Line, is narrow gauge (1, 067 mm).Overall, the condition of the existing PNR line from Calamba to Legazpi is in fair condition largely on account of good construction, relatively light axle loads and very little accumulated traffic.
