A new rail border crossing was inaugurated Aug.25 at the Brownsville – Matamoros Port of Entry. The new rail line bypasses urban centers but it does not significantly add to crossing infrastructure for agricultural products. On Aug 10 a unit train of soybeans crossed at the new bridge; it was bound for crushing in Monterrey.
