Mexico trains and buses
Mexico used to have a good train service linking all major cities, using restaurant cars, sleeping-cars and observation cars, many inherited from the USA. Sadly, the Mexican government discontinued almost all long-distance passenger train service just a few years ago, and buses and planes are now the only way to get around Mexico. A couple of very minor service exist in certain areas, including the famous 'Copper Canyon' service from Los Mochis to Chiuaha. For a summary of remaining Mexican train services see www.mexlist.com/pass.htm. For information on the Copper Canyon train service see www.chepe.com.mx/ingles/index.html.
Bummer, huh? I guess we'll be traveling by bus!
I couldn't find anything on buses that travel farther north than Zacatecas or San Luis Potsgi, but I'm sure there are buses that travel up there. So far, here are some links:
