An investigation will be launched to determine the cause of the derailment, said Mexican state prosecutor Ernestina Godoy.

Mexico’s president Claudia Sheinbaum instructed the secretary of the Mexican Navy and the undersecretary of the Ministry of the Interior for human rights “to travel to the scene and personally take care of the families.”

The Interoceanic train, operated by the Mexican Navy, connects Mexico’s Pacific and Gulf coasts. Its main line was put into operation in 2023 as part of a new program by then Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador to encourage economic development in southern Mexico and create an alternative to the Panama Canal.
