The Beast: Mexico's Deadliest Train

On a hot night in Irapuato, central Mexico, we wait beside the tracks for 'The Beast'.

Designed for freight, not families, these desperate travellers ride atop the carriages, exposed to wind, sun and relentless heat for days on end.

We are 1,500 km from Ciudad Juarez, on the US border.

Only the most desperate of would-be US immigrants ride what Spanish speakers call La Bestia (The Beast) or El Tren de la Muerte (The Train of Death).
