A good site covering those car lines is The Tramways of Yucatán The city of Cancún is a new city, and Xcaret is promoted as an Disney-type eco-park. The NdeM did not come into being until 1938, operated railroads; NdeM would not have been the original owner of this car, nor would it have had any reason to have possessed this car.My educated guess is that this car was operated on one of the plantation railroads on the peninsula, was acquired by Xcaret, and painted up to promote Xcaret without regard to its actual historical significance (a scheme not uncommon in many parts of México). |
