Regarding the environmental benefits...well let's hope electric overhead wire is up and running soon, as I am little surprised to see Diesel all along the line so far. The trains are ready to operate electric. A train lasts for at least 35 years, often longer, so in terms of resources, it's a more responsible option than any car. #TrenMaya
The key to noticeable #environmental benefits I'd argue will be to win over tourists and locals from buses and cars. Now I just wonder how you actually prove that, as the bus system is completely private and will likely not share much data. In the end we need to be lucid enough to acknowledge that more ways generate more traffic. So let's also wonder what would happen without the train: even more roads across the peninsula's fragile #ecosystem? #TrenMaya
