On August 19, 2025, an incident occurred involving the Tren Maya at the Izamal station in Yucatán, Mexico. Initial reports described the event as a derailment of one of the train's cars while traveling from Cancún to Mérida, affecting the convoy 304. The incident involved a single bogie of the third car deviating from the track during a switch in the railway system, which caused it to lean against another stationary train, convoy 307. Authorities confirmed that 261 passengers were on board at the time, and all were unharmed. The Tren Maya director general, Óscar David Lozano Águila, clarified in subsequent statements that the event was not a derailment but a "percance de vía" (track incident) caused by an anomaly in the railway switch system. He emphasized that this anomaly should not have occurred given the railway design and ruled out human error or sabotage as causes. The incident prompted the activation of safety protocols, and affected passengers were transported to their destinations by bus. This event marks at least the third accident reported on the Tren Maya since it began operations, with previous incidents in March 2024 and January 2025. The Mexican government and Tren Maya officials continue to investigate the anomaly to prevent future occurrences.
