      <title>AN APPRAISAL OF THE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE RECEIVED BY THE RAILWAYS OF LATIN AMERICA</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/68601</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Because many Latin American railways were built to transport agricultural or mineral products to points of use or to seaports, and because they were built at low cost in regions with unfavorable terrain, they today do not constitute networks for adequately serving their nations.  They are not profitable and vulnerable to highway competition.  For some years they have been receiving technical assistance, usually from outside the continent which has brought about a transfer of technology.  This is a report of a seminar organized to evaluate the assistance already received with a view to improving its effectiveness in the future.  The experience of the railways and of the international agencies which finance or supervise such assistance is reported in this document, along with recommendations for the future.]]></description>
