About Latin American Rail Weekly

Latin American Rail Weekly is a free weekly briefing on rail projects, tenders, concessions and policy across Latin America, from Mexico to Argentina. It is published by Latin Rail Intelligence.

What each issue covers

Each issue covers the week’s most significant developments in detail, with a short assessment of what each means for the rail supply chain and for investors. Shorter items from across the region follow, together with a table of stories by topic and a list of dates to watch. Every item is sourced, with links to the original reporting and, wherever possible, to the primary source: the government announcement, tender notice or official gazette.

The briefing is written for rail suppliers, contractors, consultants, investors, operators and policymakers who follow the Latin American rail sector or are considering entry to it.
