More information on the Transportation Research Forum can be found on the Web at www.trforum.org. Industry Issue Papers Refrigerated Food Transport from Canada to Mexico: Cold Chain Challenges by Barry E. Prentice and Ron McLachlin Qualitative research methods are used to examine the status of the “cold chain,” which serves the Mexican market for Canadian food products. A brief synopsis of Canadian food exports to Mexico is presented to establish the demand for refrigerated transport. Subsequently, the supply of refrigerated transport is considered in terms of modal choice and routes from Canada to Mexico. This is followed by a narrative of cold chain challenges identified by industry respondents. The conclusion points to some policy issues for consideration. INTRODUCTION The Mexican demand for value-added food imports has grown rapidly with the introduction of supermarket food distribution systems. Most value-added food products require climate controlled transport and storage, which is referred to as the “cold chain.” A continuous cold chain is necessary to maintain quality and extend the shelf-life of perishable products.

Abstract The University of Texas Libraries’ Nettie Lee Benson Latin American Collection has preserved on microfilm 192,527 pages from 579 Mexican newspaper titles which date from 1807 to 1900. The project, which ran from October 2002 through March 2005, was supported, in part, by grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities (PA- 24196-02) and the Latin American Microform Project (LAMP), a collaborative program of the Center for Research Libraries. In this microfilm set, the number of newspaper titles published within and outside of the Federal District is about equal: 280 (48%) published in the Distrito Federal, 299 (52%) published in Mexican cities from twenty-six states. The majority of pages, however, were published in Mexico City (81%). These newspapers trace the evolution of the modern newspaper format in Mexico through its often turbulent history: from its status as a viceroyalty of the Spanish Crown to its early experiment in a monarchical form of government to its long struggle to determine a federalist system of government, with concomitant religious, social, and economic changes.

Scripps School of Journalism and the Scripps College of Communication by Patrick S. Washburn Professor of Journalism Gregory J. Shepherd Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii Abstract WOOD, LELAND K., Ph.D., August 2009, Journalism When the Locomotive Puffs: Corporate Public Relations of the First Transcontinental Railroad Builders, 1863-69 (246 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Patrick S. Washburn The dissertation documents public-relations practices of officers and managers in two companies: the Central Pacific Railroad with offices in Sacramento, California, and the Union Pacific Railroad with offices in New York City. It asserts that sophisticated and systematic corporate public relations were practiced during the construction of the first transcontinental railroad, fifty years before historians generally place the beginning of such practice. Documentation of the transcontinental railroad practices was gathered utilizing existing historical presentations and a review of four archives containing correspondence and documents from the period. Those leading the two enterprises were compelled to practice public relations in order to raise $125 million needed to construct the 1,776-mile-long railroad by obtaining and keeping federal loan guarantees and by establishing and maintaining an image attractive to potential bond buyers.

  • The Contribution of Railways to Economic Growth in Latin America Before 1914: a Growth Accounting Approach Alfonso Herranz-Loncán (Universitat De Barcelona)
    The Contribution of Railways to Economic Growth in Latin America before 1914: a Growth Accounting Approach Alfonso Herranz-Loncán (Universitat de Barcelona) The Contribution of Railways to Economic Growth in Latin America before 1914: a Growth Accounting Approach 1 Abstract Railways are usually considered as one of the most important innovations that fostered the transition of Latin America to economic growth before 1914. The social saving estimates that are available for several Latin American countries seem to confirm that view. However, the interpretation of the results of the social saving literature is not straightforward, since the comparison among social savings calculated for different countries and years may be troublesome, and the actual meaning of the social saving estimates is not clear. This paper suggests an alternative approach to the economic impact of railways in Latin America. It presents estimates of the direct growth contribution of the railway technology in Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and Uruguay before 1914, which are calculated on the basis of the growth accounting methodology. The outcomes of the estimation indicate that railway effects on Uruguayan economic growth were very low. By contrast, in the other three cases under study (Argentina, Mexico and Brazil) the railways provided huge direct benefits. In Argentina and Mexico, these amounted to between one fifth and one quarter of the total income per capita growth of the period under analysis. By contrast, in the case of Brazil, the outcomes of the analysis indicate that the direct contribution of railways to growth would have been higher than the whole income per capita growth of the Brazilian economy before 1914.

And not many have had the impact on the growth of a nation CONTENTS that BNSF Railway and its predecessors had. Celebrating Our Heritage, Shaping Our Future 2 Celebrating our heritage and building on our success is one of BNSF’s shared values. We are confident in our future because of the tremendous challenges Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad: 1849-1970 8 we’ve overcome and the achievements we’ve made over the years. The 390 St. Louis-San Francisco Railway: 1849-1980 14 railroads that today comprise BNSF have established a great legacy for our Great Northern Railway: 1857-1970 18 company, which became part of the Berkshire Hathaway family in 2010.

  • The Mexico City Experience
    Public Mobility Systems 1 Inserting bus rapid transit into an existing transportation system: the Mexico City experience G. Sands1, L. A. Reese2, M. Arteaga3, C. Espinosa3, L. Ibarra3, J. Latargere3 & A. Ruiz3 1Wayne State University, USA 2Michigan State University, USA 3El Colegio de Mexico, Mexico Abstract In 2005, Mexico City introduced MetroBus, a single BRT line along Avienda de Insurgentes, the main north-south artery through the capital. The line has been well received, attracting more than a quarter million riders every weekday. This single line has connections to suburban trains, the metro system and both the public and private bus systems. This paper reports on a survey of BRT passengers that focused on how MetroBus trips have been integrated with other transportation modes, how the cost of MetroBus compared with total trip costs, general service quality, and desired new routes. It also highlights how BRT can be used in conjunction with other mass transit options to facilitate travel in even the most congested cities, contributing to a more sustainable urban environment. Keywords: bus rapid transit, sustainable transportation, urban transportation. 1 Introduction Since it was first introduced in the city of Curitiba, Brazil in 1968, the concept of bus rapid transit (BRT) has attracted the attention of planners and public officials in countries around the world. As of April 2008, it is estimated that twelve Latin American, three Australian, seven US, and eight Asian cities have BRT systems with more currently under construction [1]. BRT is characterized by dedicated lanes, pre-payment of fares and frequent headways to provide service levels that are comparable to rail systems (although serving slightly fewer riders) but at WIT Transactions on State of the Art in Science and Eng ineering, Vol 78, © 2014 WIT Press www.witpress.com, ISSN 1755-8336 (on-line) doi:10.2495/978-1-84564-908-1/001 2 Public Mobility Systems much lower capital costs [2].

  • The Mexican Government and Railroad Development
    THE MEXICAN GOVERNMENT AND RAILROAD DEVELOPMENT, 1824-1876 APPROVED: / \ Major Professor ^4. Minor Professor airman of the Depart ale ref of History Dean Ittf the Graduate School in- Nance, James D. Jr., The Mexican Government arid Rail- road Development, 1824-1876. Master of Arts (History), December, 1972, 115 pp., bibliography, 73 titles. This thesis analyzed material on Mexican railroad development before 1876 to determine what principles under- lay public action in this area. Only significant or recurring concessions concerning connecting Mexico City and Veracruz, transcontinental communication, and tying the United States and Mexico by rail were studied, since they provided the best means of tracing public action over an extended period of time. Mexico hoped to exploit fully its legendary natural w ealth and develop its economy after separating from Spain in 1821. An important factor of that development was an adequate transportation system, which Mexico lacked. By 1833 railroads superseded roads and canals (of which Mexico had none) as the ideal means. Early rail ventures in the United States and Europe provided the models Mexico might follow; however, Mexico was politically unstable and poor, having little investing capital or capitalistic experience. Should it follow the costly "partnership in enterprise" policy of the United States, where government took an active role, extending generous cash and land grants? Should railroads remain strictly a private matter? Finally, should the government be restrictive and subordinate concessionaires to national interest? The government's conception of its role fluctuated between 1824 and 1876. The first Mexican railroad policy era (1824-1867) was characterized by paper railroads, meager subsidies, little actual construction, and governmental ascendancy over concessionaires.
