The passenger train that will connect Mexico City with Guadalajara continues to take shape… We’ll tell you which stops are being considered in Jalisco!
After talks with the Undersecretary of the Interior, César Yáñez, the governor of Jalisco, Pablo Lemus Navarro, announced that the Mexico City–Querétaro–León–Guadalajara train will seek to pass through key municipalities before entering the Guadalajara Metropolitan Area, in order to benefit more regions of the state.
The final route will be announced in May, but everything points to the train also connecting several municipalities in our state.
📍 Mexico City–Guadalajara train: these are the possible stops in Jalisco
Before reaching Guadalajara, the project plans to pass through:
- Lagos de Moreno
- San Juan de los Lagos
- Acatic
- Tepatitlán de Morelos
This would give a particular boost to the Altos Norte area and open up new regional mobility options.
🚉 Which station will it arrive at in Guadalajara?
According to discussions, the final station would be at Agua Azul Park, from where the route would continue to Tepic, Mazatlán, and Nogales.
⏱️ How long would the trip take?
There will be several runs during the day: some will include more stops and others will be direct, to make the journey faster.
Direct trip Guadalajara–Mexico City: 4 hours 15 minutes
With intermediate stops: up to 6 hours 30 minutes
If we consider the hours of transfer between airports and waiting time, the direct train would compete with the plane.
