Grupo Transportación Ferroviaria Mexicana, S.A. de C.V.
 PROFILE
Don't look for Cary Grant on Grupo Transportacion Ferroviaria Mexicana (Grupo TFM) trains -- they travel North by "Northeast" to carry goods by rail from Mexico into the US. The railroad operates over 2,600 miles of track in northeast Mexico; its trains pass into the US through the busy NAFTA corridors in Beaumont and Laredo, Texas. More than 600 locomotives and 11,000 freight cars are owned or leased by TFM. Hauling DaimlerChrysler's popular PT Cruisers from Mexican assembly plants has helped to boost the company's revenues. Grupo TFM is a joint venture led by Kansas City Southern Industries (37%), Transportación Marítima Mexicana ( 38%), and the Mexican government's rail agency (25%).
