MEXICO CITY (AP) - The closure of an American-run railroad in Mexico stranded thousands of U.S.-bound Central American migrants near the Guatemala border.
Many have been deported today by immigration officials.
Some migrants tried to walk hundreds of miles to the next working rail line. Others -- with no money or provisions -- turned themselves in to Mexican authorities.
The government this week sent federal police and soldiers to clear out the migrants, who for decades have hopped freight cars on the Chiapas-Mayab railway.
In late July, Connecticut-based Genesee & Wyoming withdrew from a 30-year concession to operate the line.
Central American migrants continued to stream into the area. Thousands were camped along rail lines -- waiting for trains.
Mexico's National Immigration Institute didn't immediately comment.
