Sa himpilang daang-bakal na ito ng San Fernando, ang mga bihag ng dimang kawal Pilipino at Amerikano, matapos piliting maglakad mula Bataan hanggang Pampanga sa pinaka-nakapanghihilakbot na paglalakbay sa kasaysayan ng daigdig, ay sala-salansang isinakay sa mga bagon ng tren ng masahol pa sa mga hayop. Marami ang hindi na nakarating sa patutunguhan at nangamatay sa daan. (Tagalog)

At this railroad station of San Fernando, the Filipino and American prisoners of war who had been marched all the way from Bataan to Pampanga, in one of the ghastliest forced marches in history, were loaded like cattle on boxcars, where, because every compartment was packed to the limit, many suffocated or were crushed to death during the trip to Capas.
