It is located in San Pedro, Laguna, within the city proper. Currently, there are 2 stations. The old one, now used as a PNR quarters, used to be the station where passengers can ride trains going to the Bicol region, to the former terminus of the Metro Manila Commuter in Biñan and Calamba stations, and to the branch line towards Carmona station. It used to have 3 tracks, one is the main line south, the middle is the sidetrack, while tracks nearest to the platform was the Carmona Line.
