I think the rail network has a huge potential to be as significant as the Panama Canal for shipping, especially with the Panama Canal's problems.

I was at first thinking Mexico was making a canal, that would be best, but the Panama Canal has problems, so a railroad with good ports that can load and unload quickly would be a great solution. I really want to see Mexico prosper.

Mexico will never "prosper" as long as it is run by corrupt politicians like Lopez Obrador (sends in the army to seize a private railroad from a group he used to befriend). Mexico has had the exact resources and location as the US and yet remains a third world country. Think it through.

one of the most important parts of the project that it was not mentioned in the video is that the goverment is also considering building industrial hubs across the railway. The main idea is that the train won't transport only finished products, but also raw materials will be unloaded on one side and transformed into finished goods as they cross through the railroad. IT would be like a horizontal factory, you have raw materials in the Atlantic and you will have finished goods in the Pacific. This is one of its key features since this is something the Panama Canal cannot do

I think the industrial parks need to be highlighted more. The new factories will allow raw materials to come in from one ocean and go out as goods to the other side. So the entire project is not only a transportation route, but an industrialization hub, and a great opportunity for international companies to outsource their factories as well for mexican companies to export goods.

It’s what my AI says: The letters used to designate the different branches of the Mexico rail corridor project were likely chosen based on the local geography or important landmarks along the route. The "Z" branch, which is also known as the "Zapata Spur," runs through the state of Oaxaca and passes through a region known as "Zapata," named after the revolutionary leader Emiliano Zapata. The "FA" branch is named after the town of Francisco Villa de Allende, which is located in the state of Puebla and is a key location along the route of the corridor. Finally, the "K" branch is known as the "Kabah Spur," which is named after the ancient Mayan ruins of Kabah, located in the Yucatan Peninsula. So, in summary, the letters were chosen based on local geography and historical landmarks along the route of the corridor. 😊🌎

Then the Trains head West to the Pacific or North to USA. China is in the North Pacific and Ships to Australia direct plus West Coast USA and everywhere else, what needs to be sorted is China to East Coast of USA. B P

Some people might think using a train line to cross the land, and having to transfer the containers twice, is nuts. But a lot of people don't realize, this is actually done every day in the US. Look up "North American Land Bridge". A huge portion of container traffic that comes off ships in the west coast harbors, get put on trains... taken all the way to the east coast, then put back on ships to Europe. You won't hear the rail industry talking about this much, because they don't want people knowing that a lot of traffic that goes through their towns, is purely for making profit. It never destinates in the US. Personally I think the whole lopsided China/West import thing is ridiculous. You;re going through all that, to save a couple bucks on something that could be made down the street from where it's sold. But it doesn't look like it will be stopping anytime soon.

That is a major gripe for me as well. I worked in an industry where we saw a transition to making goods in CN, and boy oh boy, where to start. It sounds like a broken record at this point, but quality was a huge issue. Entire containers that we'd send back in the beginning to get reworked. Eventually the cost of doing that became too high, (especially when the reworked goods still weren't up to snuff) and to the landfill they went. So wasteful, and for a lower quality product. It makes me feel I'll when I drive around different parts of this country and see that dollar stores are springing up everywhere. Disposable culture has to change.

The train line where the CIT is going to be located is based off the old Panamerican Train (Ferrocarril Panamericano) lines which started back in 1890. It was a project that would create several train lines that would link transportation from Canada to Panama. Due to the Mexican Civil war in 1910 the train line was not completed but the right of way for the lines still exist. So the president of Mexico used those existing lines K, Z, etc. to build the new CIIT.

The French plan was for a level sea-to-sea canal, like Suez, but they didn't have the resources to get through the highlands. They were also defeated by massive illness. The US adopted a design using the massive rainfall and excess water combined with locks to go over the highlands. So, cleverer and more efficient. Walter Reed + screened dorms + better meds defeated illness.

One vital thing the presenter didn´t mention is that along the Interoceanic corridor in Mexico, there´ll be 12 big industrial parks with hundreds of assembly and manufacturing factories from Mexican, US, Asian, and European companies. When you consider that fact, you can more clearly see that this new corridor isn't just meant to get cargo from coast to coast. One of it's main difference with the Panama Canal is that along the way, tons of cargo can be unloaded and given added values by assembling and processing goods, then loaded back on the train and continue to their final destination. That's a significant part of where the estimated half a million new jobs will come from. It's actually a novel idea that Panama can´t compete with in just being a simple passage toll booth.

Never mentioned here is the Panama Railway which opened in 1855. There was a railway across the isthmus long before the canal. With the current limitations of the canal and the relatively low cost of railroad, looks to be a good move by Mexico. Next step would be a design to on/off load multiple containers at once.

As of today, they have already implemented the "railway" system in both ports. A railway ship is a 180 meter long ship with several decks with rails with the capacity to transport 135 trains. This design allows railroads to board directly onto a ship without needing to unload and load with cranes. This reduces loading and unloading time by up to 80% since once the railways arrive at the port they begin to load one by one onto the ship until it is full and that's it.

Mexico is simply adapting to various changes regarding global manufacturing and trade. Chinese labor used to be cheaper than Mexican labor. However in recent years they have over taken the cost of Mexican labor by about 20%. It would seem that Mexican Leaders are positioning themselves to take advantage of this as more companies are certain to consider them for for future operations. Having much of the intercontinental logistical infrastructure already in place will not go unnoticed. It's a smart move on the part of the Mexican Leadership.

I think Mexico is on to something. It will help their country’s economy tremendously and it will be a lot less expensive to utilize than the Panama Canal. The real question is how long it will truly take to use the CIIT since you have to unload upon arrival, transport, then reload back onto the ship on the other end? Maybe it will still be faster than going through the locks at the Panama Canal. Then, of course, the security of your goods in transport while not on your vessel would certainly be a concern as well as the cartels trying to stick their foot in things. I hope that they can make the project work. Then the migrants can hopefully stop there and obtain work rather than continuing on into the United States.

it's a bit of a chicken and egg thing. But these projects will actually help in their own right. The primary problem preventing Mexico dealing with the cartel problem is that the cartel's revenue from drug sales in the US competes with the taxes the Mexican federal government collects. It means their "employees" earn a similar amount to their legitimate law enforcement counterparts and makes law enforcement vulnerable to bribery. These state owned projects will help to massively increase the revenues the federal government takes meaning they'll have a stronger hand to play. Mexico has a long, long, long way to go but it is definitely taking steps in the right direction to solve the issue.

Technically, it's not a "map" -- it's a view from space. The view just happens to show the canal from the north. The Gulf of Panama IS in the Pacific.

Another key factor not fully mentioned in this video is that the corridor isn’t just to transport goods between oceans. I think the word corridor is being misinterpreted to be just a passage way, which isn’t wrong. But in this case they are referring to a corridor of industrial parks connected by rail, which will also connect to expanded shipping ports on both oceans. A large assembly line if you will. The main goal here is to attract and establish manufacturing businesses and dependencies in this corridor. The advantage these business will get is good and low labor costs, access to raw materials, access to parts from other manufacturers (if also established), nearby cargo airports, and quick access to BOTH oceans which seems to be the most important. A business won’t have to decide if they should locate and ship from the east or west coast, or open two factories, one factory /office in this narrow corridor can pretty much ship to anywhere in the world. And finally, last year (I think) they also finalized adaptations to ports in Mexico and Mobile, Alabama. They already have one cargo ship where trains leave their cargo carts and there get loaded on to this ship, then unloaded at the other port and connected again. They had a second ship under construction at the time, not sure if that has entered service or not yet.

The logistics actually works and should cost less. To get goods form point A to point B, you need a ship. To get goods from point B to point A, you need a ship. The transit of those goods is already happening in both directions. Therefore the ships already exist. The difference would be, that each ship would be traveling less distance versus using the Panama Canal. Therefore, the round trip fuel cost of shipping the same goods would be less than the one way trip through the canal. Also, time is money. Since this would reduce the travel time of the ships, it will also reduce the man hours needed to ship the same goods. Which in turn, reduces operating cost and increases profit margin.

During the 1500s the Spanish Empire transported goods from ships this way, across México, then to the Pacific and oward to the Philippines and China. They tried crossing at Panama but the tropical diseases killed too many guys. So they crossed by land from Veracruz to Acapulco. This was known as the "Manila Galleon" route.

I’ve been in that region (Oaxaca). It is absolutely beautiful, safe, and the people are super hard working. People there are not waiting for handouts. So I think that is a great solution to alíviate Panamá and to give Mexico another source of income, and a big one at that. I personally don’t agree with all the politics of president AMLO; But I have to say this is a great one and for the future. So I wish them well.

Perhaps a little bit of clarification, the Panama canal was originally designed by a French entrepreneur which started the work and failed due to brutal constructions problems as well as environmental diseases such as malaria. USA took over the construction and finalized the canal and got a lease on it for several years and just recently was turned over to Panama.
