      Amigo, realmente problemas de financiación para la construcción del tren maya no hubo, el proyecto se hizo tan solo con lo que los gobiernos anteriores y delincuentes se robaban de la gasolina en los ductos de Pemex a lo que se se llamaba huachicol, en la última etapa se demoró por la oposición en México, que quería hacer quedar mal al presidente Obrador, presentado amparos ante el poder judicial federal, para demorar la obra argumentado cualquier cosa. La obra del tren maya, el aeropuerto Felipe angeles, el aeropuerto de Tulum, el tren interoceánico, y muchísimas obras más que se hicieron durante la administración del ex presidente Manuel López Obrador, son un orgullo de México, y vaya que pusieron en evidencia a los anteriores ex presidentes que no hicieron nada y todo se robaban además de estar saqueando el patrimonio de la nación. saludos y gracias por visitar nuestro país.

    I am happy that this train is increasing the turism in my state Campeche,before the train it was practically forgoten by turism and now i see more tourists but sadly not in my city because the train dont pass there but it still benefits us because the money is spend in all the state including my city Ciudad del Carmen,good review!

      I almost made a visit to Ciudad del Carmen along my travels, but the timing didn't work out. Looked like a lovely city!
      I agree that overall, it will be of benefit. Campeche (my next two videos), was a beautiful city, and I mentioned a few times how surprised I was that most people don't think to go there when visiting Mexico. I think the train will help with the whole area.

      Agreed, I think it's a much better option than another highway for more cars, or more dangerous routes where accidents can happen.

      @MrRibonu หลายเดือนก่อน +10

      @wanderbeard and it seems they learned a lesson from tren maya since they're planning on having the station downtown where the old stations are instead of outside the city like tren maya.

    • @wanderbeard
      @wanderbeard  หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      I think it will probably depend on the historical significance too. Merida for example, the train line goes under the city, instead of through the downtown, so maybe that's an option. I didn't mind the stations where they were, as it gave them a chance to really stand out and look unique in each place. But I also understand it makes them more difficult to get to and from, for many people.

    This train has a very strong meaning for most Mexicans, it was a project of former President Lopez Obrador, who proved what can be done by rejecting corruption and allocating those resources into these kind of projects. For many of us, the greatest President Mexico has ever had.

    • @wanderbeard

      I've heard from a lot of people who both love Obrador and Morena Party, and those that hate them. To me, as an outsider, I think that his party and his leadership (along with Sheinbaum now) are trying to make things better for Mexico and its people.
      I cannot say for sure as I do not know enough about the political side of things, this is just my opinion.
      I *will* say that what people in the US/Canada/etc think Mexico is like, is far from the reality. Mexico is a fast growing country with many very good things going for it. And the nicest people I've met anywhere. ✌️

    The wife and I had just spent 2 weeks in Merida, on our ADO bus ride back to Cancun we got behind an oversized load on the toll rode. There had to be about 5 or 6 truck in the convoy. We rode beside the convoy for about 10 or 15 miles until the convoy pulled over at one of the few plazas to let traffic get around. To our surprise it was an entire Tren Maya train loaded on flatbed trailers going down the toll road. We were pleasantly surprised to see the famous Tren Maya train going down the road.

    There’s no underground portion of the train in Merida, what changes is that between Merida and Cancun the railway is electrified instead of using combustion. The underground was at the very beginning of the project but changed because people didn’t want the train to go into the city, and then they used the land to construct La Plancha park which was a good decision in my opinion.

    • @wanderbeard
      @wanderbeard  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Oh! Good to know, someone on the train had actually told me that it was underground through there (and I didn't get that far on the train for this journey). Parks and green spaces are always great uses of land too, so that's also great to hear!

    • @wanderbeard
      @wanderbeard  หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Funny how most people I spoke to, seemed to be really happy with the train service. That they took the time to recover almost 8000 artifacts along the route, shows that at least some care went into the process. And yes, they had to cut down trees. Did you expect them to just plow through them?
      I don't think it's "sickening", as it's helping a lot of people from poorer communities with new opportunities. It's not meant to be a profitable operation, it's about increasing the transportation options. Way better than building more highways.
      And since when is it a government's responsibility to be profitable? It's a service to the public. It WILL increase tourism to the area as well.

      Yeah, no worries I figured what happened. But people forget that most of the railway already existed so they just made it wider for safety reasons and about the cenotes only one was damaged and when that went to the news the government made the construction company correct the errors not completely but at least they addressed the issue, of course people only believe what they want to believe. And remember this is the same government that rescued the Texcoco lake, so it’s not that they go constructing things without any consideration.

All of the spots the train 'links' were already linked before by a very efficient road network. Last I checked, All of the ticket prices for the train are way pricier than any bus, kind of cancelling the better deal for locals and citizens. Locals complained they didn't need a train network and on the contrary the construction divided communities, literally splitting them apart. These are all facts, but the conversation around the train has been very very politically charged so it's difficult to approach.

    Glad to see trains making a resurgence in México! I had the opportunity to take an overnight train from Cancún to Palenque many years ago, in the early 1970s. The cars were beautiful, but a bit run-down, old Pullman cars from the US. My friend and I had individual bunk beds in the sleeper car. It was difficult to sleep as the train tracks were uneven, which made for a rocky ride. The trip took 12 hours. Palenque, by the way, was spectacular.

So, it's just because here in the U.S.A. citizens are, almost unconsciously, convinced by government or I'm not sure how to put that, but that traveling outside of the U.S.A is "bad" m'kay and you "lose all your american rights" m' kay...and that is so discouraging. I got buddies that would never travel to México or anywhere, man they don't know what they're missing out on. Even if it's not México. You got to travel to gain empathy for people and I'm sure it's made you a happier person to discover what's beyond the U.S.A. TAKE CARE!

      There's other trains in other parts of the country already, but this feels like the first one for Mexico with a unified vision and plan. It's certainly a great way to get around and see the country. Thanks for watching!

    Wonderful review and honest comments; just to add a couple of observations: Before there was a railway system between Yucatan state and all the way up to Mexico City; from Merida, service was provided to 8 different cities in the state and at some point it was useless; before former President Obrador, the project was to link Merida to Cancun with a high speed train line but was never built. And the other observation, there are no underground sections in Merida and the stations are in the outskirts of city, one close to the Int'l airport MID (Merida Uman) and the other one on the freeway that goes to Cancun (Merida Teya); both conveniently located; it will take some time to stabilize and as you perfectly explained, it was inaugurated without being completely finished; Merida-Cancun is a two way track so more possibilities with schedules, both cargo and passengers. Thank you for your honest review!!

      Thank you for watching, and I'm glad you enjoyed it! Yes, I'd read that there used to be a train service before, and I think it was smart to re-use some of the same stretches where tracks used to be before. I'm a big fan of trains in general, I think they're a great way to move people around, and are way underutilized in North America.
