There are 11 stations on the LRT2 line, from Recto Station in Manila to Santolan Station in Marikina.
In a previous statement, the LRT management suspended the operations of LRT2 for the whole of Thursday after a fire broke out between Katipunan and Anonas station that affected its power supply.
"The fire that was seen along the carriageway between Anonas & Katipunan stations was caused by the tripping off of Rectifier Substation (RSS) 5 located at Katipunan station," the management said.
Authorities are still investigating the cause of the fire. — Joahna Lei Casilao/BM, GMA News
