10th Avenue Railway Station
10th Avenue station (also called Asistio Avenue station) is a railway station located on the North Main Line in Caloocan, Metro Manila, Philippines, near the original Caloocan railway station. The station was meant to be a part of a revived commuter rail system, built during the term of Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. After being constructed, no services to this station were ever provided until August 1, 2018, when it was opened for the Caloocan-Dela Rosa shuttle line. The northbound line is temporarily dismantled to give way for further works in NLEX Segment 10.1, and is currently a temporary single-line track. It was the terminus of said line until the clearing and recondition of the rails in the Caloocan station at Samson Road finished. The line has since been upgraded to terminate at FTI station, with this station no longer the terminus since September 10. Due to nearly a decade of disuse since its construction, the station has been weathered and its gate barriers no longer functio ...

10th Avenue, Caloocan
10th Avenue, formerly known as Macario Asistio Sr. Avenue or simply Asistio Avenue, is an undivided four-lane street in Caloocan, Metro Manila, Philippines that stretches east–west, bisecting south Caloocan. Like most avenues in the Grace Park area, it crosses a grid system of numbered streets that run from north to south, with other numbered avenues running from east to west. 10th Avenue was formally renamed as "Asistio Avenue" prior to the reversion of its current name, owing to it being the tenth avenue running east–west from the city's border with Manila in the south. The former renaming was done in 1984 to honor the former mayor of Caloocan who served from 1962 to 1971 and the father of another Caloocan mayor Boy Asistio, but has since been disregarded and reverted. 10th Avenue and the present-day Grace Park district, through which it travels, was a pre–World War II civilian airfield known as the Manila North Airfield or Grace Park. This airfield, which opened in 1935 n ...
