Info

Section 3.0 Community AssessmentFrom a national and international perspective, the Intermodal Center at Kendleton sits atthe crosshairs of the KCS Lazaro Cardenas rail line and the Freeport Foreign Trade Zone(FTZ). The importance of the rail line is that the route now begins at the Mexican port ofLazaro Cardenas which is located on the country’s Pacific coast. This gives internationalfreight shippers the option of docking in Mexico to unload rather than traveling throughthe Panama Canal. The rail line continues from Nuevo Laredo into the United States,through Kendleton and ultimately to Kansas City. With the Intermodal Center now partof the Freeport FTZ #149, it is evident that the number of rail cars and the tonnage ofgoods arriving in Kendleton will be growing exponentially.Figure 3-6: Texas ForeignTrade ZonesFigure 3-7: Kansas City SouthernSystem Map14 City of Kendleton
