while you down were there, you should've made a video about the Vulcan Materials Company from USA, this company is literally destroying huge parts of the jungle and people who are against Train Maya never said a word about it. btw AMLO inaugurated train maya from Campeche to Cancun today, tren maya is going to be great for the southern states of Mexico.
Yeah ,this Guy never Mentioned VULCAN MINING CO. which Destroyed the Jungle and Contaminated rivers, to Extract Materials sent to the US,AMLO put a Stop to this and other Canadian Companies.
I think overall it is a much need railway where the positives outweigh the negatives, at the same time I as a foreigner our opinions shouldn't matter. Since when do we encourage Mexicans citizens voice there opinions on infrastructure projects in our country? Mexico welcomes all tourist from all over the world but let them decide on their own. After all, Mexico needs job creation as a way to solve the immigration problem. They continue to make progress because majority of immigrants now entering from Mexico are not Mexicans. Mexicans are now staying in Mexico in great part because of AMLO's leadership. Take a look at the U.S. Interstate Highway system, Railways, underground gas pipelines. Its like the pot calling the kettle black.
I agree, I make some of the same points in my final assessment at the end of the video, and that is why I interviewed locals to get their take on it. Thanks for watching!

You’re Totally wrong . 1. The Mayan train is built over the old already installed railroads (85% of the road) the bushes and rusty old metal were taken away to put the new ones. 2. There’s no such controversy, all Indigenous communities were asked to vote to approve the project respecting . Flora ,cenotes and ruins . Sophisticated technology were used to detect ruins and cenotes which even detoured the original route. Which fake ambientalistas generated your source of information? Resorts developers and traffickers of animals. Old highways were bettered. Xcaret tourist resorts were constructing fake tunnels tu unite cenotes for their new project and they were stopped. Lots of ruins have been discovered and the government used photomaping to study wild life and big extensions that were to be destínated for resorts ( the “ambientalistas” that gave you fake info ) have been declared federal natural zones , lots of fauna tunnels and bridges were built cos many animals were usually ran over at highways, most Mexicans agree with the project another “ambientalist “ is the American company Vulcan which was stopped cos for years they have destroyed jungle, animals even ruins to take rocky material to take to construct highways in the US and some materials for residential pools cos due to its minerals can help to give that turquoise tone to the water , they have paid actors, fake environmentalists , media , and people as well as they paid corrupt judges to give no less than 300 legal protection to delay the project and the government won one by one legally cos they had no real legal basis . AMLO has paid since 2019 indigenous people to plant 2.5 million acres of trees which were already deforested by wood traffickers , tha national guard protect the project as well as avoid trafficking animals, tarantulas ,and the robbery prehispanic pieces . The biggest discoveries, protection of ruins, unveiled new ruins and bones plus artifacts have been found like never before. 3. People living in poverty , at the side of the old railroads , were given dignity new homes in the town and those old poverty homes were planted with trees. Those are the images you showed as if trees were destroyed making a road in the jungle . I want to think you were used and not paid by Vulcan to punch AMLO’s humanist and echological projects. And yes there is a new airport at Tulum inaugurated by AMLO on Dec 1st 2023, but it was used the old military airport that was there, the military donated that land and also another big property to be declared federal protected zone. With AMLO, there have been declared more federal protected areas than ever before. No more pig farms and deforestation thanks to his projects . All the Mexican media which used to receive loads of money to talk well about the past corrupt presidencies , lost that money and have been attacking AMLO since day one , BUT he has the support of 80% of the population like no other president ever. Search for it, he has been the second most popular president worldwide since he won the presidency. And yes he is running working 16 hours a day , 7 days a week, supervising personally and gathering info from the people cos he was aware he only had less than 6 years to transform our country into a a world power it is today. PS and suppose nothing I said is true, were all train railroads of the world built without affecting environments ?
1:19 you should say: “why are SOME people against..” as a Mexican myself the majority of people wants that train, the controversy that surrounds it comes mostly from conservatives opposed to the government and many hired pseudo environmentalists, have you been in Washington state? I have , and I’ve never seen such level of destruction on forests and deforestation in my whole life in Mexico, have you made a video about it? whenever I look in the hills and mountains, there’s devastation, in some places it looked like a nuclear bomb was detonated. And sorry if I sound rude but im honest, I don’t make UA-cam videos about the subject because, if I do that what do you think Americans are gonna tell me?
Yeah this guy "natan" (who likely doesn't live in Mexico) is pretty much making up stuff, I'm an actual mexican living in Mexico and I can tell you roughly half the country is against the project and half is for it. As always AMLO's fanatics, I mean followers, want to make it seem like everything that the president does is great and has no issues. Also as usual they disregard valid criticism and resort to whataboutisms, like if that somehow works as a remedy for whatever is done wrong by AMLO. The ecocide is very real, and there are many valid criticisms that haven't been really addressed.
That's a lie...A LOT OF P PEOPLE IS AGAINST... first... NO REAL STUDY DONE PLUS A LOT OF CORRUPTION WITH NO REAL STUDY ABOUT ACTUALLY HELPING THE PEOPLE, BUT DAMAGING THE JUNGLE...! tell me... hope the working people are going to pay for a train with ONE WAY TRACK TO GET AROUND AND 1000 PESOS TICKETS??? PLUS WE'LL HAVE TO PAY THE PRICE FOR LOPEZ CORRUPTION... SUBSIDIES WON'T HELP THE PEOPLE...

I can almost warranty you that those who are against this project already bought their tickets for the 1st ride. That’s how HYPOCRITICAL they are; I know them.😂😂😂
The environment was not damaged, because this project was carefully planned years ago And they built it on an existing railway The government already planted millions of acres of trees before this project began ,besides they planted 2 trees for avery tree they cut for the train So there was no damage done. But, the oposición doesn't like it because of political reasons The USA and Canada cuts millions of trees every year to build their houses and no one says anything about it In México they use concrete and brics to build their houses so no trees are killed ,like in the states
Mexico is generating thousands of jobs in reforestation in the south and in countries such as Guatemala, Salvador, Honduras, Haiti, Belize and Cuba in order to help the rural economy and thus prevent migration.
Im from México we are really exited.and happy. Whith My president.AMLO. viva México Viva el titán de la democracia. Mexico is the progress. And gratefull. For this wonderfull proyect..❤amén 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽👏🤝❤💗💗🙏
I know everybody is screaming "Rainforest!" but by the time the Maya had taken over Mexico they had deforested much of it. There are way more trees now than there were 500 years ago. We have better farming methods and fertilizer. More crops per square area today. Back then, everything was a farm or a city. Lidar showed in 2 years that the area that had buildings and structures were 10x more than we thought even 10 years ago. Everybody is a tree hugger nowadays; the original Maya were not.
I don't understand why the lies, the whities deferested same as they did in europe hundred of years ago, most of mexican wood Europeans looted not the local Mayan, native communities in mexico is culture not to cut alive trees just the dry ones, elderly people enforce those kind of behavior to the young...
Over a million residents in the area will be lifted from poverty. Fact is the higher standards of living have the higher the impact on the environment, such as in the U.S..
Is one of reasons why they did it cuz people need work and president is bringing development to the south border and people is happy but not the neoliberal that are against development I can imagine how liberals government love to see people in the poverty but this president is changing their faces to the happiest in the world with this geat idea
Sowing life is the best and largest reforestation program in the world, there is no such program in any country, neither in Russia nor in China nor in the United States. So far, more than 500,000 community members and ejidatarios are benefiting from it, with 1,113,000 hectares planted with 150,000,000,000 fruit and timber trees with an annual investment of MXN37,000,000,000. ✌️
If you don't build a train fast the oil industry will start building highways and more car traffic which is way too much worse for the environment. Most of the people or citizens have no no clue if a train is good for them because urban planning is not their line of work.
I thought that Tren Maya employed diesel oil trains for passenger and freight trains. I just don't know why the line was built so close to people's houses. I don't live in a town and so probably don't understand what is good in urban terms. I can't wait to try the train, however, and think it is an amazing project. Hopefully connecting multi-mode services are being planned in - I can't find any information on these aspects.
The Mexican government maintains an active reforestation program not only in the peninsula, but also extends to Central American countries. Do you want to know more?
March 2023, I lead a motorcycle tour of the Yucatan taking 4 Gringos that this was their first trip to Mexico. We stayed in the small village and ate at the small restaurant. I had a chance to speak with many indigenous persons. None were happy about the Mayan Rail. Their fears were that more tourists would not improve their lives but make the area too expensive for them to continue to live in the area. I have made many trips to Mexico. I watched Playa de Carmen go from paradise to a tourist hell hole. My first stay the roads were all dirt. Rented a hut on the beach only feet from water's edge. On the motorcycle tour I ran into a protest roadblock on Hwy 180 about 75 K east of Merida. Had to back track and spent the night in Izamal.
Please !THE RAIL WAS ALREADY PLANNED LONG AGO SOME HAD TRAINS RIDING ON THEM THEY ARE BEING USED FINALLY NO DEFORESTATION DEWEEDYNG DESHIERVARDO adiós hierva mala .
The federal government has invested 30 billion dollars in the Southeast of Mexico and has already allocated more economic resources in the 2024 budget. The objective is to improve conditions in the Southeast and that means reducing migration to the United States.
1. It's no a high speed train 2. Peninsula and south México are forgotten by industry and commerce, they need a train to move goods and not depend on highways, that any way are part of deforestation, but train can move largest amounts of cargo. 3. Accidents on dangerous cargo can happen in highways too. 4. A lot of workers of small communities will be benefit from the train.
The clearing was already there because other presidents were going to buid this project, but intead, they embezzeled the budget. I lived in playa and this project is going to bring lots of employment as the country is progressing like never before. This is only one of many important projects are developing in the nation. "The new interoceanic train" project will boom the country's economy.
Forget the Mayan train...the Mayans who destroyed the jungle by making a ton of pyramids...it is stupid to think that all progress is made in order to destroy nature....
I was very patient viewing your video, and even you are mentioning that you are not pro or con. The way you conduct it this video is bias . in order of growing and create jobs , better economy for the population development is necessary. In the rich countries environment is 2nd term. They don't give a fuck about trees and who and what are damaging, even they they remove original people's from their ancestral lands in other to obtain what they want. This area and this people has been forgotten by all previous governments before AMLO, which is the most popular and best president in the world. Previous to this president, were only puppets of the USA. Now the economy is better, poverty is down, the medical programs are growing , and 100'sof other important programs and project are getting set in favor of the people.
False, this project will not harm the environment nor the jungle on the contrary it will protect it and where the train will pass there are communities, archaeological ruins and highways. Also along the track there are natural passageways, above and underneath. The benefit of this integral project includes urban planning, natural restoration and will allow communities to be connected and economic benefits for them.
Estas en México no necesitas visa y crees que estas informado de lo que pasa el desastre ecologico se vuelve mayor pera los mas necesitados mientras los empresarios y propietarios como Xcaret la mina Calica no hablan de destruccion en beneficio de las empresas traduce el comentario por que estas en Mexico I wanted more informention please

Man I hope you collect what the people think about this project for the prosperity or at least what they expect. Not from people is not around there or just recently move there or experts like this owner of the restaurant go ask to natives my name is Ricardo never been there but I understand they plant millions of trees and save land for animals not little thousands of kilometers
Can you make a video about homelessness in the USA , and how the USA gives thousand of billions to Ukraine instead of helping Homeless people in the USA?
Yo como mexicano nunca hablo mal de Estados Unidos tu como gringo no tienes que hablar cosas como mal de México deja que los mexicanos hagan las cosas si esta bien o mal es nuestro pais deja se quieren superar queremos ser como estados unidos francia Alemania todos podemos saludos
It’s a good project. Yes, nature has been compromised but it’s a very small percentage. There is no development without some down turns. Well made video, but I don’t agree with you.
Just remember why I came back am in SOCAL and they have been planning a fast rail train for some time actually a very long long time and California does not mess around ,there’s money being a country on its own in mula dinero and yet not moving along at all and AMLO has done it .
You're right. Your opinion doesn't count. I also like how you excluded your girlfriend's opinion because it would've contradicted your narrative. If you would've bothered to do more research and talk to more than 3 people you would understand what a monumental change this will be in the long-run. The whole "environmental controversy" was a political ploy by the political opposition to undermine any project taken on by the current administration.... Obviously this will benefit the locals who have little opportunities as the area is not suited for industrial or agricultural activity. I look forward to see the benefits to the region.
En México hay poco más de 800 000 kilómetros de carreteras, en su construcción a través de un siglo o más, se han derribado millones y millones de árboles en todo el país, y así pasa en todos los países del mundo, así que los 'ecologistas' que no le hagan a la mamada.
I think that with the In responsable way the United states has been developed !! We should be the last one to be telling Mexico how to develop their country !!
I have driven all over the peninsula. Unless you are a Mayan ruin fan, it would the most boring train ride I could imagine. Miles and miles and miles of boring, oppressively hot, flat jungle scrub. I hope I am wrong.
I see others commented on the political, social, and environmental impacts of this train. What I want to rant about is the overlooked yet much more important subject of Nutella being horrid enough on its own much less when added to a crépe with cheese. I am sure this combination could lead to imprisonment in some countries while it is almost a guaranteed death sentence should one actually choose to ingest such a mess.
Lo absurdo es la chica que es duena de unn restaurant para turistas y vive de eso y al mismo tiempoo se queja del incremento del turismo, y es egrasada de universidad, sim embargo su nivel de miopia y calculo de las necesidades de otras personas es impresionante.
Seems like you are too worried. Thays our country to develop it and all thia controvery is all about the tohrist hotels sector that dont want tourist to go out to the otjer areas and aharing theur income .
Mexican low tech need to learn from china elevated track for safety laser guiding satellite control look at brighrline florida in 6 month run in old track discount cut corners accident waiting to happen and it is not highspeed standards is 220 kmkm or fastest too slow it blow.
First this entire area is like Florida in the USA and will be underwater due to climate change. Climate change will also bring more destructive burrito this area. Third most of Mexico is self-insured, which means most weather destruction is permanent, both Mexican coasts are littered with abandoned resorts that never recovered after a storm. Politicians are terrible about settling aside money for infrastructure maintenance and any saltwater environment is super corrosive. The Mexican resort town of Acapulco was recently destroyed by a storm, the tourists flew out and the president could not come to look because the one road in and out was washed out. Moving to Mexico City is ridiculous as there is not enough potable water. The fancy new developments have cisterns and water is brought to each home weekly by truck to fill the cisterns, sometimes the water truck does not come. Do more research man.
Ryan, Intrest ing who paid you to do this video and how much did you make. If you were independent you should have made a better effort on your research.
La mujer que opina que la deforestacion es impresionante, yo creo que deberia vivir en el desierto o en la luna, me imagino que piensa que todas los asentamientos humanos de han hecho en lugares deserticos, sin vegetacion o ya ex profesos para hacer ciudades e infraestructura, aunque haya tala de árboles, el gobierno de AMLO se ha encargado de sembrar muchos más!!!
Then dismantle your country’s infrastructure and trains and let the trees come back. Why do you whites get to have trains but others can’t develop? Don’t like it, then dismantle your infrastructure, because the rest of us are tired of being kept without industry.
Also, on a long stretch, a pre-existing divided 4-lane highway is being used for the project. They have taken one of those sections, removed the asphalt and now are laying the rail tracks on that section. And widening the other remaining 2-lanes to accommodate 2 more so that they can still have a 4-lane Highway but now with a concrete barrier in between since they are no longer divided. Doing it this way ensures that there is minimal impact to the forest since they are using the area that was previously cleared and used for that 4-lane highway. Plus there are reforestation projects already in the works. Some of these projects are now also being implemented in some Central America countries with Mexico’s assistance.
A train is being built for the future and if you have some knowledge of urban planning you know that building a train is a smarter decision than building highways.
chrisdesilets. I absolutely agree.
Very true. As a canadian I seen the jobs it created there.
The train is a very important project for the prosperity of southern Mexico.
The majority of the tracks and infrastructure is already there, from 1900.
Haha
You are right, they should do some research before talking about something they didn’t know. Most of the railroad was already there.
The real devastation was when hotels were constructed throughout the entire Mayan riviera.

Yes majority of Mexicans in other party of te World they did not like it
It is “Imperative” to Stay Away From and “Not Disturb” the Subterranean Cave Ecosystem!
@@barrywhite9114🤭... CALICA, grupo XCARET, ahi les hablan.
I can almost warranty you that those who are against this project already bought their tickets for the 1st ride. That’s how HYPOCRITICAL they are; I know them.😂😂😂
The environment was not damaged, because this project was carefully planned years ago
And they built it on an existing railway
The government already planted millions of acres of trees before this project began ,besides they planted 2 trees for avery tree they cut for the train
So there was no damage done. But, the oposición doesn't like it because of political reasons
The USA and Canada cuts millions of trees every year to build their houses and no one says anything about it
In México they use concrete and brics to build their houses so no trees are killed ,like in the states
Mexico s Nature would be just fine and Always have Survived everything else✌️🇲🇽💯
Mexico is generating thousands of jobs in reforestation in the south and in countries such as Guatemala, Salvador, Honduras, Haiti, Belize and Cuba in order to help the rural economy and thus prevent migration.
Im from México we are really exited.and happy. Whith My president.AMLO. viva México Viva el titán de la democracia. Mexico is the progress. And gratefull. For this wonderfull proyect..❤amén 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽👏🤝❤💗💗🙏
I know everybody is screaming "Rainforest!" but by the time the Maya had taken over Mexico they had deforested much of it. There are way more trees now than there were 500 years ago. We have better farming methods and fertilizer. More crops per square area today. Back then, everything was a farm or a city. Lidar showed in 2 years that the area that had buildings and structures were 10x more than we thought even 10 years ago. Everybody is a tree hugger nowadays; the original Maya were not.
I don't understand why the lies, the whities deferested same as they did in europe hundred of years ago, most of mexican wood Europeans looted not the local Mayan, native communities in mexico is culture not to cut alive trees just the dry ones, elderly people enforce those kind of behavior to the young...
This train is a good project. It started working already. Its bad ass..will be able to see beatiful scenery.
If you don’t know about what this guys have been doing or have done for many years in calica,you’ll be shocked.
Over a million residents in the area will be lifted from poverty. Fact is the higher standards of living have the higher the impact on the environment, such as in the U.S..
Is one of reasons why they did it cuz people need work and president is bringing development to the south border and people is happy but not the neoliberal that are against development I can imagine how liberals government love to see people in the poverty but this president is changing their faces to the happiest in the world with this geat idea
Sowing life is the best and largest reforestation program in the world, there is no such program in any country, neither in Russia nor in China nor in the United States. So far, more than 500,000 community members and ejidatarios are benefiting from it, with 1,113,000 hectares planted with 150,000,000,000 fruit and timber trees with an annual investment of MXN37,000,000,000. ✌️
Dude this is not for turism alone. Its gonna be a cargo train as well thatll bring lots of industries in the peninsula.
If you don't build a train fast the oil industry will start building highways and more car traffic which is way too much worse for the environment. Most of the people or citizens have no no clue if a train is good for them because urban planning is not their line of work.
I thought that Tren Maya employed diesel oil trains for passenger and freight trains. I just don't know why the line was built so close to people's houses. I don't live in a town and so probably don't understand what is good in urban terms. I can't wait to try the train, however, and think it is an amazing project. Hopefully connecting multi-mode services are being planned in - I can't find any information on these aspects.

SEDATU...
The Mexican government maintains an active reforestation program not only in the peninsula, but also extends to Central American countries. Do you want to know more?
March 2023, I lead a motorcycle tour of the Yucatan taking 4 Gringos that this was their first trip to Mexico. We stayed in the small village and ate at the small restaurant. I had a chance to speak with many indigenous persons. None were happy about the Mayan Rail. Their fears were that more tourists would not improve their lives but make the area too expensive for them to continue to live in the area. I have made many trips to Mexico. I watched Playa de Carmen go from paradise to a tourist hell hole. My first stay the roads were all dirt. Rented a hut on the beach only feet from water's edge. On the motorcycle tour I ran into a protest roadblock on Hwy 180 about 75 K east of Merida. Had to back track and spent the night in Izamal.
This is really well made, I love how you just interviewed the staff at the restaurant you were eating at 😂 what camera do you use?
Hey, thank you! I use a Canon EOS 800D
Please !THE RAIL WAS ALREADY PLANNED LONG AGO SOME HAD TRAINS RIDING ON THEM THEY ARE BEING USED FINALLY NO DEFORESTATION DEWEEDYNG DESHIERVARDO adiós hierva mala .
The federal government has invested 30 billion dollars in the Southeast of Mexico and has already allocated more economic resources in the 2024 budget. The objective is to improve conditions in the Southeast and that means reducing migration to the United States.
Great work, thanks to the Mexican president.
1. It's no a high speed train
2. Peninsula and south México are forgotten by industry and commerce, they need a train to move goods and not depend on highways, that any way are part of deforestation, but train can move largest amounts of cargo.
3. Accidents on dangerous cargo can happen in highways too.
4. A lot of workers of small communities will be benefit from the train.
The clearing was already there because other presidents were going to buid this project, but intead, they embezzeled the budget. I lived in playa and this project is going to bring lots of employment as the country is progressing like never before. This is only one of many important projects are developing in the nation. "The new interoceanic train" project will boom the country's economy.
Forget the Mayan train...the Mayans who destroyed the jungle by making a ton of pyramids...it is stupid to think that all progress is made in order to destroy nature....
I was very patient viewing your video, and even you are mentioning that you are not pro or con. The way you conduct it this video is bias .
in order of growing and create jobs , better economy for the population development is necessary.
In the rich countries environment is 2nd term. They don't give a fuck about trees and who and what are damaging, even they they remove original people's from their ancestral lands in other to obtain what they want.
This area and this people has been forgotten by all previous governments before AMLO, which is the most popular and best president in the world.
Previous to this president, were only puppets of the USA.
Now the economy is better, poverty is down, the medical programs are growing , and 100'sof other important programs and project are getting set in favor of the people.
You can make a second part of this video now that the Mayan Train has been inaugurated. Great video BTW, very balanced and thoughtful opinions.
Thanks for the idea!
Stupid video. Go criticize Alaska railroad or go criticize fracking oil. We don’t need your approval. We are an independent country MF.
forget the trump train.. I WANT TO GET INTO THIS TRAIN. haahahahahahaha CHOO.. CHOOOO.. this is will be massive
False, this project will not harm the environment nor the jungle on the contrary it will protect it and where the train will pass there are communities, archaeological ruins and highways. Also along the track there are natural passageways, above and underneath. The benefit of this integral project includes urban planning, natural restoration and will allow communities to be connected and economic benefits for them.
Now a lots of protesters 😂but they never did when all those big hotels were building on top of the same area
3:22 I can honestly say that I have never seen a beach house pyramid or ruins like that. I guess those were the wealthy ones.
Estas en México no necesitas visa y crees que estas informado de lo que pasa el desastre ecologico se vuelve mayor pera los mas necesitados mientras los empresarios y propietarios como Xcaret la mina Calica no hablan de destruccion en beneficio de las empresas traduce el comentario por que estas en Mexico I wanted more informention please
MI HERMANO TE LO VOY A PONER ASI, CUANDO EN TU PAIS INICIARON PROYECTOS DE LINEAS FERREAS Y ASFALTADO DE CARRETERAS NO SE TALARON ARBOLES O SE ABRIERON MONTAÑAS PARA TRASARLAS?, LA INFRAESTRUCTURA DE UN PAIS ES LA COLUMNA VERTEBRAL DEL PROGRESO ASIA UN PAIS DESARROLLADO Y NO UNO SUBDESARROLLADO, 👍💯🇲🇽
There is Sembrando Vida.
Is a project that consists in planting millions of trees
Man I hope you collect what the people think about this project for the prosperity or at least what they expect. Not from people is not around there or just recently move there or experts like this owner of the restaurant go ask to natives my name is Ricardo never been there but I understand they plant millions of trees and save land for animals not little thousands of kilometers
Good job on your video lots of information and well made you should have more subscribers...
Can you make a video about homelessness in the USA , and how the USA gives thousand of billions to Ukraine instead of helping Homeless people in the USA?
Yo como mexicano nunca hablo mal de Estados Unidos tu como gringo no tienes que hablar cosas como mal de México deja que los mexicanos hagan las cosas si esta bien o mal es nuestro pais deja se quieren superar queremos ser como estados unidos francia Alemania todos podemos saludos
It’s a good project. Yes, nature has been compromised but it’s a very small percentage. There is no development without some down turns. Well made video, but I don’t agree with you.
The mayans agree to the the %90 of Mexicans are on favor of the maya train, yiu don't know
Just remember why I came back am in SOCAL and they have been planning a fast rail train for some time actually a very long long time and California does not mess around ,there’s money being a country on its own in mula dinero and yet not moving along at all and AMLO has done it .
You're right. Your opinion doesn't count. I also like how you excluded your girlfriend's opinion because it would've contradicted your narrative.
If you would've bothered to do more research and talk to more than 3 people you would understand what a monumental change this will be in the long-run.
The whole "environmental controversy" was a political ploy by the political opposition to undermine any project taken on by the current administration....
Obviously this will benefit the locals who have little opportunities as the area is not suited for industrial or agricultural activity. I look forward to see the benefits to the region.
no mames guey como nunca dijeron nada de la compania bulcan que destruyo mucoa acres de selvay ahi todo estaba bien
Wanna hear a Joke LA and SF supposed to get a high speed rail which costing over 120$B and nowhere near to complete at least until 2030
We Mexican want this train. Cute video tho.
Project completed ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
To late to protest the train is up and running!
Not HSR. It's higher speed rail. It needs to be 250km/h or 155mph to be HSR.
Nice video I really appreciate
Thanks for watching!
Most of the train rajls are in sones where a trin already exist.
You must not know that the next president could possibly high jack the project and keep the money that’s why te being rushed
En México hay poco más de 800 000 kilómetros de carreteras, en su construcción a través de un siglo o más, se han derribado millones y millones de árboles en todo el país, y así pasa en todos los países del mundo, así que los 'ecologistas' que no le hagan a la mamada.
They Forgot. 1916. To 1945. War. Zones. Japan. 2 A Bomb 💣 🎄 people. Hillside. City. Oceans. More people deaths poor. Tree.
A U.S. citizen talking about pollution, deforestation and environmental destruction... What an irony hahaha
I think that with the In responsable way the United states has been developed !! We should be the last one to be telling Mexico how to develop their country !!
O trem é um Uma forma importante de se locomover e o sul do México precisa dela. Até o Brasil os tem.
I have driven all over the peninsula. Unless you are a Mayan ruin fan, it would the most boring train ride I could imagine. Miles and miles and miles of boring, oppressively hot, flat jungle scrub. I hope I am wrong.
Viva el tren maya! Viva Andrés Manuel López Obrador!! Viva MÉXICO!!!!!
Good investment it is modern way to travel plus electrical
Do you live in Mexico now?
Still in NYC, for now
I see others commented on the political, social, and environmental impacts of this train. What I want to rant about is the overlooked yet much more important subject of Nutella being horrid enough on its own much less when added to a crépe with cheese. I am sure this combination could lead to imprisonment in some countries while it is almost a guaranteed death sentence should one actually choose to ingest such a mess.
Best comment I've received, although I have to disagree. Nutella is delicious. And as far as the cheese combo, don't knock it til you try it
Lo absurdo es la chica que es duena de unn restaurant para turistas y vive de eso y al mismo tiempoo se queja del incremento del turismo, y es egrasada de universidad, sim embargo su nivel de miopia y calculo de las necesidades de otras personas es impresionante.
Don't you have trains in the U.S. you can complain about?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
1945. Japan. War zone todays it looked good
You didn't want to go texas find work dog cat. Have freedom you not
Sorry, what? 😂
Im Pablo living in denver,co. I soport amlo, is greit proyec.is done raight now, thanks amlo.
Seems like you are too worried. Thays our country to develop it and all thia controvery is all about the tohrist hotels sector that dont want tourist to go out to the otjer areas and aharing theur income .
How old is sofi? 🤨
You. Need to put. Lazy to work
Bring alot of jobs to the Impoverished region of Mexico greetings!!
Mexican low tech need to learn from china elevated track for safety laser guiding satellite control look at brighrline florida in 6 month run in old track discount cut corners accident waiting to happen and it is not highspeed standards is 220 kmkm or fastest too slow it blow.
First this entire area is like Florida in the USA and will be underwater due to climate change. Climate change will also bring more destructive burrito this area. Third most of Mexico is self-insured, which means most weather destruction is permanent, both Mexican coasts are littered with abandoned resorts that never recovered after a storm. Politicians are terrible about settling aside money for infrastructure maintenance and any saltwater environment is super corrosive. The Mexican resort town of Acapulco was recently destroyed by a storm, the tourists flew out and the president could not come to look because the one road in and out was washed out.
Moving to Mexico City is ridiculous as there is not enough potable water. The fancy new developments have cisterns and water is brought to each home weekly by truck to fill the cisterns, sometimes the water truck does not come.
Do more research man.
Ryan, Intrest ing who paid you to do this video and how much did you make. If you were independent you should have made a better effort on your research.
Total ignorance...
Your information is incorrect rian, go home
País desarrollado hace un tren "desarrollo " país no desarrollado ecocidio en fin doble moral
Paisas
Great work Ryan !!
Thanks!
La mujer que opina que la deforestacion es impresionante, yo creo que deberia vivir en el desierto o en la luna, me imagino que piensa que todas los asentamientos humanos de han hecho en lugares deserticos, sin vegetacion o ya ex profesos para hacer ciudades e infraestructura, aunque haya tala de árboles, el gobierno de AMLO se ha encargado de sembrar muchos más!!!
nice video!!!!
This is not your country. Keep your opinions to yourself.
Ruining the land at what cost? Faster travel. Sucks. Hope the people win!
The majority of the tracks were already there from Porfirio Diaz's days, don't believe all you hear.
Then dismantle your country’s infrastructure and trains and let the trees come back. Why do you whites get to have trains but others can’t develop? Don’t like it, then dismantle your infrastructure, because the rest of us are tired of being kept without industry.
Also, on a long stretch, a pre-existing divided 4-lane highway is being used for the project.
They have taken one of those sections, removed the asphalt and now are laying the rail tracks on that section. And widening the other remaining 2-lanes to accommodate 2 more so that they can still have a 4-lane Highway but now with a concrete barrier in between since they are no longer divided.
Doing it this way ensures that there is minimal impact to the forest since they are using the area that was previously cleared and used for that 4-lane highway.
Plus there are reforestation projects already in the works. Some of these projects are now also being implemented in some Central America countries with Mexico’s assistance.
If people is poor, the is no way to save the jungle.
fake news
Awesome editing! you captured everything I needed to know about the maya train... 🤌
Nobody is against but the political oposicion who miss-inform and lies.....
Not your business.
Gringo gel your noses out of here. Go criticize Alaska railroads. Or stop fracking oil
