The 'Made in China' light rail train will serve the World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico

2026-06-11

115 new light rail trains covering the three major host cities of Mexico, with an expected daily passenger capacity of over 1.25 million - this will be a warm debut of China's high-end rail transit equipment at the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
On June 11th local time, the World Cup between the United States, Canada, and Mexico will kick off in Mexico. The light rail trains developed by CRRC China will be put into operation in the cities of Mexico City, Monterrey, and Guadalajara in a "race" mode. At that time, fans from all over the world can take the "Made in China" light rail train to conveniently reach the home stadium of the World Cup opening ceremony and major competition venues in Mexico.
As a direct line to the Mexico City Stadium, the main venue of the opening ceremony, China Railway Rolling Stock Corporation (CRRC) has provided light rail trains for this route that fully consider the characteristics of high-altitude environments and rainy seasons. The trains are equipped with regenerative braking, low-noise ventilation systems, and enhanced accessibility facilities, providing a more comfortable travel experience while saving energy and reducing noise.
The Monterey Light Rail Line 1 directly connects to the competition venue - Monterey Stadium. The train has been upgraded in terms of control system, energy efficiency, and operational efficiency, providing citizens and fans with a more efficient, environmentally friendly, and intelligent travel experience. The Guadalajara Light Rail Line 4 will integrate the southern densely populated areas into the rail transit network. Citizens and fans can take this line to transfer to the rapid transit loop and easily reach the Akron Stadium, effectively alleviating the problem of travel for spectators.
Faced with the triple challenges of high altitude in Mexico City, high humidity during the rainy season, and instantaneous high passenger flow during the event, the CRRC team has launched an "all-weather" operational support service: establishing a three-level linkage response mechanism, dispatching senior service engineers to Mexico for duty, setting up a 24-hour emergency and technical support team, providing professional, efficient, and reliable services to ensure high-intensity, high-density, and highly reliable train operation during the event. In addition, CRRC China will also launch a "Green Energy Station" check-in activity in the local area, providing fans with green travel guides and advocating a low-carbon lifestyle.
From serving the World Cup in Brazil and the Rio Olympics, to escorting the Beijing Olympics and the Chengdu World Games, to assisting in the US Canada Mexico World Cup, CRRC has always provided transportation support for top global events with reliable products and attentive services. This is not only another milestone in the world-class competition of China's rail transit equipment services, but also a vivid reflection of the pragmatic cooperation between China and Mexico. In the future, CRRC will continue to contribute to the development of global transportation with green and intelligent rail transit products and services, working together with global partners.
