this railroad is own buy a company out of mexico is why the FXE unit is in texas.

Actually TXDOT owns the track, Grupo Mexico leases the track from the state. They leased the tracks in hopes of someday shipping intermodal containers and other freight from Mexicos West Coast straight through to Dallas and various points in between. Its going to cost a lot more money than the stimulus funds that are being used now to get up to a decent speed to make it worth their while.
