Copper Canyon Train Prices   arrow

Price and schedule

The Primero is roughly twice the price of the second class train. Prices change periodically and are usually posted (along with schedule) on the CHEPE site. Second class prices and schedule also are there. Note that the prices below are out of date and also that now the 1st and 2nd trains leave at 6a-they are hooked together. Also 2nd does not run every day.

Getting Tickets

You can almost always just get on the train and buy tickets when not at either end. The ticket counters open about 30 minutes before departure (like 5:30a or so) in Chihuahua City and Los Mochis.

You need cash

Sometimes at the station and always on the train they will only take cash…so have pesos. Actually they have taken USD at times but the rate was not that hot.

Here are current prices as of June. 2011…and schedule–BUT NOTE–these prices have gone up and now the second train leave WITH the first train and second goes only on this schedule:east to west on Thurs, Sat, Mon…west to east on Fri, Sun, Tues …no second train on Wed at all.
