The Panama-Chiriquí train project not only seeks to improve transport and connection within the country, but also evaluates its possible extension to all of Central America, which would boost the economies of the region.

Experts assure that there are already contacts with other countries for this expansion, although they warn that the first step must be to strengthen logistical development in the inland provinces to maximize its impact.

In addition, railway connectivity would benefit the Panama Canal by integrating more than five provinces into the logistics system, optimizing trade and the transport of goods.
