All, except the express car are ex-Ferrocarriles Nacionales de Mexico Hawker-Siddeley second class coaches used in Mexico until the late 90's.

I thought those colors looked like the old FNM.

Part of the Mexican passenger train going out of business sale. Also some US Super 7 GE diesels were shipped over from the FNM going out of business sale. Since Mexico has been privatized, the old locos and cars have sold off.

Meanwhile Cuba took advantage of the DB ex-DR going out of business sale and picked up dozens of East German rail cars. Lots of ex-SNCF, RENFE and Dutch passenger equipment have showed up.
