Invasion by Train: Migrants Ride the 'Beast" Train through Mexico to reach the U.S
May 1, 2013
The freight train known as The Beast travels from the southern Mexican town of Arriaga up to Mexico City.
And every day hundreds of migrants, mostly from El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras or Nicaragua, sit on top of the notorious train, often for days at a time.
It is also known as the Train Of Death. Riding precariously on top of the , migrants are often maimed or killed if they fall due to dehydration or fatigue.

In recent months, the Mexican press has been drawing attention to the violence and abuses inflicted upon from Central America as they head toward the U.S. border. Particularly scandalous is the inability of Mexican authorities to stop the predators who work the confined – and therefore – space of the rail line that runs from the border state of Chiapas through Veracruz and on to Mexico City. The train that travels that route is known both as "The Beast" and "The Train of Death."
In today's El Universal , columnist and political scientist Mauricio Merino points to the ongoing scandal, writing with indignation and disbelief at what he calls "the unacceptable weaknesses of the Mexican justice system."
Merino writes that the Beast "continues in circulation, as if nothing was happening…. Why doesn't someone permanently
the operations on this route, or at least put permanent security there?"
