Subject: Mexican Railroads

Posted on: Thu, 27 Jul 2006 17:59:03 GMT

Our family used to enjoy touring Mexico on their passenger trains,
leaving Nuevo Laredo or Monterey for San Miguel and Mexico
City, and from Mexico City to Guadalajara, or from Guadalajara to the
Texas border. These were full-service pullman trains with dining cars,
pullman sleepers, and bar service. In recent years, however, it seems
that most of these passenger lines have been discontinued. - Nada, no more.

My question is: are any Mexican passenger trains still running, and if
so, on what lines. The only ones I'm aware of are the Copper Canyon
trains and the excursion train from Guad to Tequilla, plus occasional
extra-cost tourist trains to the Yucatan.

Thanks,
Jim
