Written by Jenifer Nunez, assistant editor

KCS will perform maintenance-of way-work on Kansas City Southern de Mexico this summer, which will help to grow capacity, as well as maintain and enhance safety on KCS' cross-border network.

 

“Through its Mexico and U.S. subsidiaries, KCS continues to invest in capital projects to expand network capacity, keep maintenance in a regular and healthy cycle and enhance the safety of our operation,” said chief executive officer David Starling. “These investments also help us be an economic growth partner to our customers.”

On May 27, maintenance-of-way improvements will begin on the Saltillo line between Naranjo and Morales, N.L. The work is anticipated to last about four and a half months, ending around October 7. Starting June 1 and continuing through July 20, maintenance-of-way will be performed on the tracks in the Caltzontzin District, between Ajuno and Lazaro Cardenas, Michoacán. This corridor serves the traffic going to and from the Port of Lazaro Cardenas.
