Mexican Rail Journeys From Mexico City to Orizaba
A travel letter describes a ten day Mexican itinerary from Mexico City to Toluca Pueblo and Orizaba on the National Railway. It notes engineering feats over El Paso passes, the maguey economy, Toluca’s markets, Toluca and Pueblo sights, Aztec ruins at Teotihuacan and Cholula, and Orizaba’s waterfalls and sugar plantations. The writer reflects on landscapes, climate zones, and cultural contrasts.
