History

Blumentritt was opened on January 29, 1906 as San Lazaro when the the first section of the Antipolo Railroad extension from Manila to Pasig was opened.

The then LRTA operated "Metrorail" Line 1 station was opened on May 12, 1984, since the existence of the line, the PNR station was renamed Blumentritt although it still bears the name San Lazaro in some boards.

The PNR platforms were slightly relocated west of the original station in 1990 during its rehabilitation for Metrotren services, the station was reverted back to its original location with newly raised platforms thus making it closer to LRT Line 1. The platforms and roof are currently being extended for loco hauled services such as 202/203 EMUs for the commuter services and the soon to be revived Bicol Express.
