Some Ferromex cargo trains restart in Mexico after migrant deaths spark suspension

Some cargo trains run by Mexico's Ferromex have restarted after they were halted following a spate of serious injuries and fatalities to migrants traveling on them, the rail operator's parent company said on Wednesday. In a step Mexico's president described as "unusual," Ferromex issued a statement on Tuesday saying it had temporarily suspended operations of 60 northbound trains after about half a dozen migrants suffered death or injury in recent days. On Wednesday, Ferromex owner Grupo Mexico said rail freight operations had been restarted on routes where no "heightened risk" had been identified.
