Orizaba, Ver. to Mexico City - Trainhopping The Acultzingo District
Mexico Freight Train Series Part 3 - Subtitles in English and Spanish
After spending the night in Orizaba we made our way to the yard in the early hours of the morning to catch a Mexico City bound manifest. We would have to remain situationally aware as we crossed the Sierra Madre Oriental on the Acultzingo District since this has been a major hotspot for train heists in the past few years. The result of these robberies is that there’s been a large buildup of police and military forces at several sidings on the route.

Tierra Blanca, Ver. to Orizaba, Ver. - Trainhopping The Ferrosur Linea G
Mexico freight train series part 2 - Subtitles in English and Spanish
On the afternoon of December 20th we arrived in Tierra Blanca where we would wait in boredom for the next 24 hours. During our stay we were approached by numerous locals warning us that we weren’t safe in town since it’s a hotspot for Los Zetas. A Puebla bound chemical train showed up at noon the second day and we hesitantly boarded for the ride north through the valley on the eastern slopes of the Sierra Madre Oriental.

Mexico City to Veracruz, Ver. - Trainhopping Ferrosur Líneas S/SC
Mexico freight train series part 1 - Subtitles in English and Spanish
Before kicking off our journey through Mexico following the migrant trail we decided it would be best to try our luck with the trains going south since it’s generally considered to be less dangerous than riding north. After nearly two days waiting unsuccessfully for a day ride out of Mexico City we finally boarded an iron ore train that we took as far as Teotihacan. Here we planned to switch to a Veracruz bound intermodal so that we would have a better chance of filming the Linea S/SC in the light of day.

News - Youth to Make a Difference on Mexico Mission
By: Madhava Smullen ISKCON News on Nov. 26, 2014
Around forty North American youth aged 17 and up will spend this Christmas and New Year’s on the adventure of a lifetime.
Traveling 7,000 miles all the way from Alachua, Florida to Cancun, Mexico and back on ISKCON Youth Ministry’s Krishna Culture Tour bus, they’ll stage festivals and change lives all over Mexico.
During the tour, which will run from December 12th to January 4th, they’ll also make new friendships, rekindle old ones, and see some of the most beautiful nature spots in the country.
At each city they stop at, the youth will organize, advertise and put on “Festival of India” – a Hare Krishna cultural show featuring Bharat Natyam dancers; a slideshow introducing people to the concept and benefits of mantra meditation; a participatory kirtan that has the audience chanting and dancing along; and a prasadam feast cooked in the bus’s kitchen by the youth.
The festival sites are a mix of urban and rural injected with local Mexican color, starting with the Metropolitan Museum of Monterrey, the largest city in the Northeast of the country.
Then there’s the mountain village of Xilitla. “The indigenous people, descendents of the original inhabitants of Mexico, come to their town square to have a festival with us,” says ISKCON youth minister Manorama Das, who has been running tours since 1995. “It’s very sweet.”
In the city of Tampico, on the Gulf Coast, the youth will likely sell out the Tampico University Auditorium for a festival promoted on TV and in newspapers by volunteer José , who had never been in contact with devotees before discovering the Krishna Culture tour online and emailing them saying, “You guys are so cool, I want to bring you to my city.”
In Veracruz the youth hope to perform in the downtown square opposite the Municipal Palace. And in Villahermosa, they’ll perform right in front of the Olmeca hotel with permission from the management, who will request customers to “Come eat dinner with us, and participate in this great spectacle!”
In Merida, they’ll stage another festival organized by a volunteer, this time Ariana, an exchange student ISKCON youth met and inspired in Thunderbay, Canada, during their summer tour. They’ll also perform at the beautiful central market place in the Spanish colonial town of Valladolid, and at Parque de las Palapas in the tourist center of Cancun.
A standout will be Orizaba, a town at the foot of Pico de Orizaba, the tallest volcano in the Western Hemisphere. There, youth will perform their Festival of India show in a bandshell in the local park, enclosed by old fortress-style rustic rock walls, to an expected 400 to 500 people.
The grand finale will be a massive midnight Harinama at Plaza de la Republica in downtown Mexico City. As live entertainment and TV broadcasts go on and fireworks explode in the sky, the youth will cut right into the center of the crowd and get them dancing and chanting the Holy Name.
In between all these festivals, the youth will visit the vivid blue Agua Azul cascading waterfalls in the state of Chiapas; go snorkeling in the second largest coral reef in the world off Cozumel Island in the Caribbean; and see the Mayan pyramids in Palenque; the famous flying acrobats of Voladores; and the millions of Monarch Butterflies at the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve.
They’ll also relax and do kirtan at a yoga studio on the beach in Tulum; enjoy a fourteen-course feast at a devotee’s home in Tulancingo; hear stories about the early days of ISKCON Mexico from pioneer Chitsukananda Das; and celebrate with kirtan and prasadam at Guru-Prasad Swami’s house in Houston, Texas on their way back home.
ISKCON Youth Ministry’s bus tours might be more work than your average holiday, but they also mean much more to the youth who go on them.
“They see people crying in the audience while we’re chanting, having these transformational experiences,” says Manorama. “They have people hugging them and telling them how moved they were by the performances and how much they loved the chanting and dancing. They see people come up to our book table and ask them for books. And they realize, ‘Oh my God, we did all this. We contacted these venues, we connected with these people, we put on this huge festival. There’s not a single older devotee here – nobody helped us.’”
“And I think what happens,” he concludes, “Is that the kids realize that they themselves can make a difference in Prabhupada’s preaching mission.”

Space Station Flies Over Mexico and Eastern U S
This video was taken by the crew of Expedition 30 on board the International Space Station. The sequence of shots was taken November 24, 2011 from 07:30:58 to 07:59:07 GMT, on a pass over the South Pacific Ocean northeast to the North Atlantic Ocean, just east of Newfoundland. The video begins over the dark Pacific Ocean as the ISS travels northeast towards the western coast of Mexico. The bright lights of Mexico City can be seen left of track, along with the lights of Honduras and Guatemala just right of track. The pass continues over the Yucatan Peninsula, where Cozumel and Merida are visible as brighter spots on the peninsula. As the ISS tracks northeast over the Caribbean Sea, southeastern United States becomes visible, with the Florida Peninsula standing out well. The city lights of the larger cities such as Miami, Tampa, and Orlando light up the peninsula. The pass ends by tracking up the eastern coast of the United States, where Washington D.C., Baltimore, and New York City stand out.

SUMMARY
=======
Mexico (Spanish: México [ˈmexiko] ( listen); Nahuatl languages: Mēxihco), officially the United Mexican States (Spanish: Estados Unidos Mexicanos, listen ), is a federal republic in the southern portion of North America. It is bordered to the north by the United States; to the south and west by the Pacific Ocean; to the southeast by Guatemala, Belize, and the Caribbean Sea; and to the east by the Gulf of Mexico. Covering almost 2,000,000 square kilometres (770,000 sq mi), the nation is the fifth largest country in the Americas by total area and the 13th largest independent state in the world. With an estimated population of over 120 million people, the country is the eleventh most populous state and the most populous Spanish-speaking state in the world, while being the second most populous nation in Latin America after Brazil. Mexico is a federation comprising 31 states and Mexico City, a special federal entity that is also the capital city and its most populous city. Other metropolises in the state include Guadalajara, Monterrey, Puebla, Toluca, and Tijuana.
Pre-Columbian Mexico dates to about 8000 BC and is identified as one of five cradles of civilization and was home to many advanced Mesoamerican civilizations such as the Olmec, Toltec, Teotihuacan, Zapotec, Maya, and Aztec before first contact with Europeans. In 1521, the Spanish Empire conquered and colonized the territory from its politically powerful base in Mexico-Tenochtitlan (part of Mexico City), which was administered as the viceroyalty of New Spain. Three centuries later, the territory became a nation state following its recognition in 1821 after the colony's Mexican War of Independence. The post-independence period was tumultuous, characterized by economic inequality and many contrasting political changes. The Mexican–American War (1846–1848) led to a territorial cession of the extant northern territories to the United States. The Pastry War, the Franco-Mexican War, a civil war, two empires, and the Porfiriato occurred in the 19th century. The Porfiriato was ended by the start of the Mexican Revolution in 1910, which culminated with the promulgation of the 1917 Constitution and the emergence of the country's current political system as a democratic republic.
Mexico has the 15th largest nominal GDP and the 11th largest by purchasing power parity. The Mexican economy is strongly linked to those of its 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) partners, especially the United States. In 1994, Mexico became the first Latin American member of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). It is classified as an upper-middle income country by the World Bank and a newly industrialized country by several analysts. The country is considered both a regional power and a middle power, and is often identified as an emerging global power. Due to its rich culture and history, Mexico ranks first in the Americas and seventh in the world for number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Mexico is an ecologically megadiverse country, ranking fourth in the world for its biodiversity. Mexico has many tourists: in 2016, it was the eighth most-visited country in the world, with 35 million international arrivals. Mexico is a member of the United Nations (UN), the World Trade Organization (WTO), the G8+5, the G20, the Uniting for Consensus group of the UN, and the Pacific Alliance trade bloc.
