Sucat station is a railway station located on theSouth Main Line inMuntinlupa,Metro Manila,Philippines. It was originally established by the Manila Railway Company in 1908 as part of the construction of the original Southern Lines to the province of Tayabas, since renamedQuezon. It is also the southernmost area on thePNR Metro Commuter Line to be upgraded todouble track as a result of a proposed electrification scheme in 1978.

With the construction of the Luzon Rail System, a series ofstandard-gauge railways throughout Luzon, it is proposed to be one of two interchange stations between thePNR South Long Haul and theNorth–South Commuter Railway. The present station will be rebuilt into the former's passenger terminus while the NSCR station will be built atop the formerSucat Thermal Power Plant.

Sucat was initially opened under the regime of theManila Railway Company in 1908, aLondon-based privatelimited company and the first incarnation of thePhilippine National Railways. It also happened prior to the gradual acquisition by then-privately owned Manila Railroad Company ofNew Jersey.^[1] It was then later rehabilitated after the destruction of much of Manila duringWorld War II. In 1978, theJapan International Cooperation Agency proposed the electrification of PNR's commuter services inMetro Manila. Although the electrification plan was never realized, it allowed Sucat to gain access to more frequent services as it allowed for the construction of a double-track line leading to the station.^[2]

Despite scaling back in operations in the 2010s with the latest cutting on Bicol-bound trains, the PNR continues to operate this station to date. However, a third siding track used on the eastern island platform has been long removed. The most recent renovation was in 2017 when the PNR fenced off an open yard previously used as parking space forjeepneys into an off-limits green space and the entire platform has been covered by roof.

Under PNR general manager Junn Magno's term, the Luzon Rail System was announced.^[3] It is a series of lines that will reconstruct the old narrow-gauge network which has since been dilapidated into the wider standard gauge. The move was made because it allows better access to technology from international suppliers, which in turn means faster trains and more frequent service according to theNational Economic and Development Authority.^[4]

Under this program, the new station will have two buildings. The first to be built is theNorth–South Commuter Railway station building. It will be built over the decommissionedSucat Thermal Power Plant,^[5] having been demolished in 2019. It will be accessed by asiding-like short line and will merge with the PNR right-of-way upon exit. This would allow electrified trains to go towards the direction ofCalamba station in Laguna. The second will be thePNR South Long Haul station building which will be built over the present one as part of Phase 4.^[6] It will serve as the passenger terminus of the line with only freight trains being allowed to pass north to the rest of thePNR Metro Commuter Line, heading towards the direction of theManila North Harbor once a post-Phase 4 reconstruction has been announced.^[7]

The NSCR station will be an elevated station while the design for the South Long Haul one is yet to be determined. The two lines however will not share tracks.^[8]

In March 2021, PNR added Sucat as one of the stops for its proposedAirport Limited Express service.

Sucat station is accessible byjeepneys plying the Meralco Road andDr. Santos Avenue routes. A jeepney terminal is located immediately outside the station. The station is also accessible by buses plying the South Luzon Expressway which stop in Sucat.

An indirect connection to theLRT Line 6 has also been proposed by a private-backed firm via Lake Front station under Phase 6C.^[9]
