San Francisco De Campeche Railway Station
San Francisco de Campeche is a railroad station near San Francisco de Campeche, the capital of the Free and Sovereign State of Campeche. The route of the Tren Maya includes a 235 km (146 mi) section extending from Escárcega to Calkiní, and this section includes a station in San Francisco de Campeche.
History
Beginning
Andrés Manuel López Obrador announced the Tren Maya project in his 2018 presidential campaign . On August 13, 2018, he announced the complete outline. The route of the new Tren Maya put San Francisco de Campeche on the route that would connect with Escárcega, Campeche and Mérida, Yucatán.
Construction
At first, the station was expected to be built on land owned by the Ferrocarril Transístmico. The station would be close to an older station and would be part of an urban regeneration project for the city. Some time later, the location of the station was changed to be built on the Periférico in Campeche. The railway station officially opened on December 15, 2023.
