Vito Cruz station is a railway station located on the South Main Line in the city of Manila, Philippines. The station derives its name from the former name of the adjacent now Pablo Ocampo Sr. Street, which is Vito Cruz Street, after a former alcalde mayor of Pineda (present-day Pasay).

Vito Cruz is the eighth station from Tutuban and is the last station on the South Main Line physically located in the city of Manila.

History

Vito Cruz, together with Buendia, was opened on November 24, 1975, as part of the 83rd anniversary of the Philippine National Railways.

On March 28, 2024, station operations were temporarily suspended to make way for the construction of the North–South Commuter Railway.^[1]
