Im leaving south america because I have to protect my family from gangs and drug lords. And it is also easier to find a job in the U.S.

Lightning was flashing across the sky while me and my family was waiting to aboard the"la bestia," or the beast,It was heading to Arriaga, Mexico.Thousands of migrants we ride atop the trains during their journey through Mexico to the U.S. border.

A train crew loads sand into an engine to sprinkle on rain-slick tracks while headed north from Arriaga. And while on the way we met a lady and she told us how she got caught under the train. She said “I have been Living at the shelter for six months after falling under the wheels of a freight train and losing her right leg while en route to the United States”
