A proposed high speed rail between San Antonio and Monterrey is in the works.
Story here.
Now. This is a whole off-topic non-train issue, but with the problems we have with illegal immigration, does anyone think for a moment that we will allow people to travel freely over the borders without customs inspections? And now we're introducing the word "commuter" as well. Intercity traveler would be the proper terminology. All this article does is to confuse the public and give them false expectations.Instead of paying for a round-trip airline ticket to Monterrey from San Antonio — which can cost at least $400 — Cuellar said a commuter could hop on a high-speed train and travel between the two cities in less than two hours.
He said it would also let the commuter skip lengthy customs lines at the airport and crowded border patrol check points.
