Union Pacific & Mexico Freight Rail

InTek Freight & Logistics: The Podcast

With shipping between the U.S. and Mexico continuing to be a hot topic, we turn to an authority on how to move freight via rail between the two countries - Union Pacific. On this episode of InTek Freight & Logistics: The Podcast, we're joined by Beto Vargas, UP Vice President of Sales & Marketing - Mexico.
He discusses Union Pacific's 30-year history in Mexico, its flagship Falcon and Eagle cross-border solutions - the latter of which also connects to Canada, and his outlook on the coming nearshoring boom. He also talks about the value of having experienced, bilingual partners to deal with customs and the speed of intermodal versus over the road solutions when it comes to cross-border shipping. Spoiler alert: it can be faster than truck in many scenarios.
