In December 2023, the Mexican government inaugurated the first passenger train service in the Yucatan Peninsula, known as the Tren Maya. The project is set to offer routes from Chetumal to San Cristobal in the state of Chiapas, in hopes of dispersing tourism more equally across the South of the country. This new mode of transportation could be a serious game changer in terms of not just tourism, but also economic upliftment in the region. The launch got off to a bit of a rocky start but we’re here a few months later to assess the efficiency of this new railway system.
